If you have an application open then the contents of the files that the application has open will presumably be kept in the state they were at the time of the suspend. If the open application has unsaved information in memory that is needed to make sense of the files, this could lead to corruption of file contents. Not the same as file system corruption, but still data corruption. I'm not sure how well-formed applications deal with suspend. | |

Hmm, how is this possible? Perhaps you use hibernate? Because when you use suspend, if the laptop runs out of juice, it shuts down and then you basically do a cold boot. (At least here after suspend and a loss of power it never resumes from where it left.)
