Is there a way to close the lid of my MBP while running the display off an external monitor and have the computer run?
Otherwise known as clamshell mode.
I don't know how to do this in XP (Home) though on BootCamp..

Nevermind I figured it out..
Turns out there was an option in the Power Options to not put the laptop to sleep when I close the display.
Anyone else wanting to fix this go to:
Control Panel/Performace and Maintenance/Power Options/Advanced
Go to the Power Buttons portion and for the heading "When I close the lid of my portable computer", select from the drop-down menu "Do nothing".
Done.
