I have a crude script that I run on machine startup that it puts my
cpus at the lowest speed when the lid is closed, but otherwise leaves
the machine on.

#!/bin/bash
laststate=open
while [ true ] ; do
  lidstate=`cat /proc/acpi/button/lid/LID0/state | awk '{print $2}'`
  if [ "${lidstate}" == "open" ] && [ "${laststate}" == "closed" ] ; then
    echo "at `date` lid was opened"
    /usr/local/bin/highspeed
    laststate=${lidstate}
    grep -i mhz /proc/cpuinfo
  elif [ "${lidstate}" == "closed" ] && [ "${laststate}" == "open" ] ; then
      echo "at `date` lid was closed"
      /usr/local/bin/lowspeed
      laststate=${lidstate}
      grep -i mhz /proc/cpuinfo
  fi
  sleep 10
done
