I like to just unplug mine when its on, its faster, uses even less power, and it always boots up again just fine; no annoying freezes or whatever.

I was having wake from sleep issues with my DP 2.0 that I attribute to the USB card I've got in it. You asked for a temporary fix...here's what I do. I don't "let" my computer go to sleep on it's own. I found that if I log out and then put it to sleep it works just fine. It only takes me a few seconds to log back in and it wakes every time. I alomst never shut my computer down unless I'm going to be away for more than a day or if there are storms in the area, but I do log out and put it to sleep anytime I'm away from my desk. Not the most elegant solution but it works, and like I said I'm sure my problems are caused by my USB card, without that I had no problems whatsoever. Maybe the same thing could work for you.

Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Are you saying you're physically unplugging your Mac instead of shutting down? Can that possibly be?
