Seconded. I actually have had uptimes of something like 5 months
before on my t21 and similar with my t60 and that includes 2 daily
commutes to and from work and often cross-country trips to conferences
without ever shutting down. On my system, suspendtoram would last at
least a week starting with a full battery, maybe more. I only ever
went about 2 days suspended on a camping trip with the laptop left in
the car, but it was down maybe 10-15% when I resumed, so I assume a
week would be fine.
