Do you mean that suspend to RAM and/or disk do work on your laptop without any tweaking ?
If the laptop firmware and your X11 display driver are not broken: yes, it does work out-of-the-box for some systems. Not all. Yet. :-)

Good explanations but room for improvement

Yep.We have come to understand that these things might be "broken" and hence not functional on Linux. Yet, as Windows user we are used to having those "broken" stuff fully functional. Looking forward for the future. Just a decent choice of laptops guaranteed as "Linux" compliant (including firmware etc etc), including some best deals at the supermarket next door, might be enough to make me happy.
