Did you know you can easily put your mac to sleep by pressing command-option-eject (if you have a dedicated eject key on your keyboard). You’ll need to hold ‘eject’ for a couple of seconds.
How about just sleeping your display? try shift-control-eject!
Of course, if configured in system prefs, you can setup your mac’s power button to put your machine to sleep too.
Got an Apple TV? Put the video-output to sleep by pressing and holding the > (play) button. Note that this doesn’t put the Apple TV to sleep, it just shut’s off the video output.
Got any more sleepy tricks? post a comment!
