Mac OS X
Apple modified the behaviour of the power button in the OS X 10.9.2 update. To sleep the Mac now you must hold the button for about a half second, vs. a momentary tap in the past. It works the same way on desktops and portables.
The change may have been intended to placate those who didn't like its previous behaviour. For a couple of representative complaints read:
after installing maverick power button does not provide options to sleep, shut-down
New Macbook pro/air keyboard layout FAIL. 1000+ order on hold.
... etc.
