is it true?
when physically press the power button once or click the default off icon in
Windows Vista.
system goes to standby mode, not power-off ??

is the standby mode in Vista is identical to the one in XP?

I remember i was once manually set my laptop at standby mode and keep it in
my bag for hours and find that my bag is a bit warm. so i will never use
standby mode again even it resume system much faster than power-off mode.
