[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1807700, member: 175845"] After sleeping on this new Laptop "wake" Apple feature and giving it a bit of thought, actually it makes a fair bit of sense. Especially consideringIf one is going to be opening the cover, then one is probably going to be using the laptop and a press on a key or keypad saves hunting for the power switch, which at least they didn't hide on the back on the laptops!!! :Smirk: And at least they finally gave a sentenceIn their support article that the behavior was intended. I guess for those with those affected models who don't like the feature can try and learn not to touch the keyboard or Keypad when they open the lid and maybe let Apple know they're not a happy camper with the feature. Or at least without an option to turn it off. And that lacking option really surprises me, or maybe they have just hidden it somewhere which seems to be their new method lately. I guess the good news is they now don't get what could have been an embarrassing Startup Sound: [url]https://youtu.be/Mt1bgsvsWms[/url] - Patrick ====== [/QUOTE]
