    Hello all,

    I was curious if anyone knows if Cumulative Bios Hours includes time spent in hibernation or even sleep mode.

    At my work (where of course I caught the TB Bug) we never shut down at the end of the day we slam the lid closed and throw them in our lockers, plug in the chargers and get the hell out of Dodge.

    So I suppose if Cumulative Bios Hours includes all time spent, "Not Turned Off", the surplussed high mileage models being auctioned off actually have good screens since we only use the machines maybe 3 hours a day tops.
