[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 388127, member: 24098"] A better comparison between the two would be "Standby" mode in Windows and Sleep mode on the Mac. Hibernation mode in Windows was designed to address complaints of long boot-up times in Windows. You still don't get an instaneous wake-up from hibernation, but it's typically much faster than waiting to cold boot. Since Macs boot-up so quickly (comparatively speaking, of course), there's really not much of a need for a "hibernation" mode on Mac OS. [/QUOTE]
