New MacBook Pro Screen Help

Hi guys,
I have got myself a new macbook pro and it is amazing, but is there anyway i can control wat action the macbook takes when the screen lid is closed.

If you ae looking for it to not sleep while the lid is closed its going to require a 3rd party app. I just also received my MBP so I havent looked into which ones are good. I had sleepless for my macbook but it quit working after a certain update (still in Tiger) and I never looked to see if it was fixed in Leopard.

I was looking for the ability to make the MacBook hibernate instead of sleep when the lid was closed.. I found the solution here:
