why can't "desktop" or "thin clients" or "home theature settop boxes"
or "router appliance" benefit from a robust suspend? Just because
"laptop" users are the traditional group who feel a need for this,
doesn't mean its not the right solution for a broader range of users. 
Don't desktop bioses that are being sold right now claim to support to
suspend?
