On AC Power Preferences
Use the options on the On AC Power dialog box to automatically put your computer
to sleep when it has been inactive for a specified amount of time. When your computer
is asleep, it is turned on but in a low power mode (suspend to RAM). It takes less time
for a computer to wake up from sleep than it does for the computer to start up after
being turned off.
You can also set only the display to sleep and adjust the display brightness. If your
computer is in the middle of a task (for example, burning a DVD) that you want to
finish while you are away, set only the display to sleep.
