The issues that people have with suspend and hibernation are a direct result of shitty non-ACPI compliant hardware drivers, period. It's not the OS, it's the drivers. You have to have 100% support for ACPI across the board, no exceptions, or the power management functionality that ACPI is capable of (suspend states, hibernation, even shutdown and restart) will not work as they are designed to work.
As Microsoft doesn't write drivers, the fault lies primarily on the hardware manufacturers... this has been a known issue for over 10 years now, but it rears up with a "new" OS especially in beta testing.
Beta OS = beta drivers = shit fucking doesn't work.
As time goes by, as the OS hits RTM status, more solid and stable and fully 100% compliant ACPI ready drivers will appear and that's that.
