Since hibernate has been broken for the last three releases of Fedora, I do
suspend to RAM. I wish hibernate worked though. Either way, I don't like
rebooting and I think something like this would be great. Most the people I
do know, even non-techies, generally either suspend or hibernate the machine
since they don't want to wait for the system to start up.
