I walk with my screen open at the office sometimes. I prefer my computer does go to sleep when I close the lid, but if I’m just grabbing a quiet room for a meeting, I don’t want to wait for the network to come back up when I open it again. Been using computers since the 80’s, but still a noob somehow.
