If you turn it off then it is off *smile*. The pi ower source light is on indicating that a plug is plugged in to the socket, if you have a plug with aswitch and turn that off then the power light will go off. If you choose to put it in stand'by mode then it is ready to go in seconds. -----Original Message----- From: "Andrew Summers" Sent: 29/05/2013, 12:22 PM To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Question about my laptop Hi All, If I turn off my laptop and leave it plugged in with a light on , is it in standby mode or not?
