[rant] Macbook Pro wake up from sleep

I really love Apple, but holy crap am I pissed off. I manage an office network with about 40 Macs, and a decent number of our laptops exhibit the failing to wake from sleep issue. I am so sick and tired of this problem and the fact that it's been going on for such a long time without resolution. And to top it all off, I bought the president of our company the new MBP model and guess what, it has the same problem. He doesn't even use an external display or bluetooth or anything. FAIL!

Re: [rant] Macbook Pro wake up from sleep

hmm I have a MacAir... I've never had this problem, ever. Maybe its just a specific program that's failing to play nice with the sleep mode?

I've encountered this several times in Leopard. The fix for me was (on my MB) to close the lid and reopen, and I would then be presented with the log in screen and could log back in.

To be honest, I'm always leery of sleeping my MB since I started using Leopard - I didn't have this problem with Tiger.

Maybe others here will have a better solution.

If my MacBook Pro remains at my desk, I don't let it go to sleep, I just let the displays got to sleep after 15 minutes and the hard drive to sleep when possible.

The problem was much worse for me when Leo first came out. Since the last update (10.5.5) it's been a lot better. I think I've only had one crash and I close the lid literally 5-6 times a day. As someone else suggested, it might just be something specific to your setup.

How many are laptops and how many would you say have the problem?
