Someone asked a while back about changing batteries on a MacBook Pro in
sleep mode and whether it hibernated and preserved the sleep state when
you removed the battery without having the power cord plugged in.

The answer is that it does.

Yay! Proper hibernation, the useful way.

When you power it on with the changed
battery in place it boots quickly to where you were prior to sleep but
it loads the memory state from disk. The screen is drawn in grey during
this process.

Are the settings for hibernation visible in the energy saver control?
