And it really sicks. I know I've voiced my opiniononthis before but apple really needs to change that. I mean you can just close the lid and put it on your bookshelf and still be able to use it or wht not. I don't see why youcannot or should not be able to configure this. THat's the onlything I love about the other platform I use. I can close the lid and let batch convert files and put it away from me and eat or work on something else. all while the lid is closed. I really wish apple would take that in to consideration in lion or in the next or a next update of os 10.6.
