I discovered this today and perhaps some others will find it useful:
My 770Z was sleeping on AC power with no battery. I disconnected the
power (having forgotten that I'd ejected the battery) and immediately
realized what an idiot I was. Then I noticed that the green LED
indicating sleep mode was still lit. I put the battery in and when I
opened the lid, it woke up without complaint.
So apparently some Thinkpads can survive for at least a few seconds
without power if they are in sleep (not standby) mode. (Of course they
can survive forever in hibernate mode.)
