You can configure the Suspend button to hibernate the computer. Though
my personal preference, when hibernating a computer, is to trigger it
directly from software. Anyway, same difference; shut down a computer
without shutting down a process. I do the same with several of my VMs
- when I'm done with them, Save Machine State. (Except the one for
Magic: The Gathering Online. For some reason MTGO has problems if I
don't actually reboot it periodically, so that one I just shut down.)
