Is the apple light on my macbook air supposed to pulse when it's sleeping? It doesn't seem to be doing that...

I read online that the apple light on the lid of a mac is supposed to "pulse" to the rythm of human breathing when it's in sleep mode, but mine isn't doing that. Should it be pulsing?

MacBook Air, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3), 11-inch

When your Mac is in sleep or turned off, the Apple light is turned off. That's because it uses the light of the display and the display is turned off
