it's only relatively recently (10.2 I think) that wake from sleep has been like this.

Wait till your macbook has been on sleep on battery power for too long, runs out of battery juice while in sleep and left in that state for a week (or a month etc etc). Then open the lid when it's plugged into the power outlet....

Back to exactly where you left it in still less time than it takes a PC to wake from sleep.

That is a feature I'd be a dead duck without! Running out of battery is a simple annoyance, not a hair-pulling deathly loss-of-data experience. The way it should be.
