Hmmm... I must be experiencing that one in a million experience again then, 
'cause I've never used, or even heard of 'hibernation' until recently, and 
I've been executing START > SHUT DOWN > STANDBY since I got my L50 Jan 01 
1998, and have always watched the "Libretto writing to disk picture" as you 
put it!

I have finally heard from the guy I bought the HDD from on EBay, and he's 
got it out to me via UPS ground, CA > FL, so I'll be able to play with all 
this soon.

Matt
