Hibernate vs. Shutdown

On the tablets, there is an issue with hibernation mode.  As many of you have probably experienced at some point, if the tablet has been in hibernation mode for a long time, it will not wake up or when it does it won't work correctly.  I am asking that if you are headed home, that you please shut your computer down by clicking the arrow next to the red shut down button and choosing shut down.  For going in between classes, closing the laptop is fine, but if the computer is not going to be used for 45 minutes or longer, shut it down.  This will also save battery power.
