The WallStreet sleep issue involved not waking from sleep because of a magnet in the IBM (IIRC) drive tripping the reed switch in the 'book casing. You couldn't wake the 'book at all. According to my WallStreet user's manual you had to press a key to wake the book, as I remembered. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
