The Apple Macintosh Book is going to sleep, when the lid is closed.
My Friend who is using it is actually a DJ, so am I, and he really can't have it going to sleep constantly etc.
Does anyone know how to deactivate it on lid closure ???
I don't know the full story, but the user doesn't want it happening.

Not sure you can, check the Control Panel, but it's a feature...0

The other option would be to break off the pin that tells the machine its lid is closed (not sure if you can do this on a mac, and it would affect warranty/resale).0

No pins sticking out of a Mac, nothing like a PC laptop! It's a sensor built into the hinge...0

It is to stop the machine from overheating.0
