It's the difference between suspend to ram versus suspend to flash, if you are interested. One is really quick (ram), but still draws some power in order to maintain the memory. The other is slower (flash), but puts the entire state of the machine onto the flash "drive" so you can essentially kill the power (except enough to recognize when it needs to "wake up").
