I would think that it is far more easier to just turn off the screen. It
couldn't be that hard to press F5 while not in any programs? Lol, Thanks for
the giggle, Craig B. Richcreek

Yes, all my laptops do it. Problem is once you reboot the laptop, it will
turn the screen back on, and so you have to redo the key command again.
And speaking of lid to keep the laptop from getting dirty, I make my own
laptop cases like a note taker with a cover flap over the top.

Why not just turn off the screen? With Most laptops it can be done with a
combination of the FN key and another key. Is this not an option with
these
laptops?

I only suggested this if you are totally blind, and are able to restore
the
laptop with no sighted help. Granted, if you got a sighted wife or
somebody
that use your laptop, then don't take the screen off. I don't have
anybody
that use any of my computers nor laptops and I have only one monitor in my
house which is cover in dust.

Reading this give and take about removing the screen:
What happens when someone needs to read the screen for whatever reason.
I think removing the screen, though it might increase battery life, is
very short-sighted and may cause more difficulties than first imagined.
There are times my sighted wife might use a machine, she has to locate
something for me or perform an operation which will not speak (image
restores is an example) so removing the screen would make this impossible
from what I gather.
Correct me if I am in error or are not understanding, but I don't get it.
