Yes, unfortunately; some windows components take a long time to shut down
properly (even just for susoension), and some hardware suspend/hibernate buttons
work too fast for this. Microsoft warns about this ins some docs, and suggests always
suspending from the start button instead of from hardware.
I've been having problems with my TP560 ever since I installed some new software
(notably the DUN1.2 upgrade). I've had spotty luck hibernating from the function
keys, decent luck using the TP560 'change battery' program (which is really just a
hibernation function), and good luck using 'suspend' from the start menu.
I'm still on an oldish BIOS revision; I wonder if newer ones would accomodate
the sluggish new MS routines better.
