    My question is a simple but a good one in my opinon, i was just wondering if i have my power settings on my laptop to do nothing wheni close my lid, well does that cause damage to my laptop? should i have the settings set to go into standby or have it do nothing. For example, i listen to music while doing something elce away from my laptop, and i shut the lid so dust or w/e doesnt get into or on my keys on my keyboard. i leave the computer running so that i can still listen to music, is that healthy for my laptop??

    Its not going to hurt anything, but I wouldn't transport it like that.
