[QUOTE="6string, post: 1006508, member: 120039"] I believe that sleep is being activated when the lid is closed by sensors of a sort by the magnets that make contact when it is closed. Therefor, I figure that if these apps can work around it and bypass this action, then there must be a way to what the OP wants. I would still love to hear of a way to do this without a third party app! In saying that, I just came up with a work around. You could use one of these InsomniaX type of apps, and then use a hot corner to sleep the display before closing lid. [/QUOTE]
