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.
