[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 668176, member: 24098"] Just keep pushing the brightness down key (F1) until the backlight turns off. Yes, the backlight also lights the Apple logo. It's more like Standby in Windows. Well, except that it actually works as intended most of the time. That is to say, the system is still turned on, but there's just enough power to keep the contents of memory working. But the major functions shut down, including the CPU. The nice thing is that it turns back on to where you were when you closed the lid, and it's available almost instantly. [/QUOTE]
