[QUOTE="MYmacROX, post: 1067379, member: 92466"] Yes... sort of. You will experience disconnection/sleep momentarily after you close the lid. BUT, if you have a wireless mouse connected you can "wake" the Mac back up by moving the mouse around. I've noticed with my particular MBP (mid-2008) that it works best when I wait about 10 seconds after closing the lid before attempting to wake it up. There are some pretty affordable wireless mice out there. The cheaper ones are going to have a USB receiver that you have to plug into your MB. There are BlueTooth mice, but they are more expensive of course. [/QUOTE]
