I agree with Windows - it's screwy.
Closing lid and putting it in backpack - 50% of that simple action resulted in laptop being hot like a frying pan when i take it out few hours after.
I traced it down to wireless mouse - it apparently "wake up" laptop as soon as mouse pointer movement detected and it "awakens" itself and boots itself with lid closed in a backpack.
So my sequence to close lid on Windows laptop:
- Disconnect all wires coming to it.
- Turn off wireless mouse.
- Close lid.

My theory is the mouse is kept active by minute vibrations from a nearby fan among other sources, but I haven't tested it yet. Either way, how Microsoft's idle detection code can be so poor give the implications is breathtaking.
