Question about standby mode on laptops

Whenever I close my laptop, it goes in standby mode. Sometimes when I am playing a game and I need to constantly look back to a walkthrough, I will flip open the cover and read through for about a minute, close the laptop again, and maybe 5 minutes later, do the same thing. If I frequently do this, is it bad for the laptop? What could happen? What is a safe amount?

Thanks.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Does it actually go into standby/sleep mode, or does the screen just shut off?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

It goes into standby mode.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I am interested in responses to this question as well.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

The wikipedia entry gives both pros and cons:

Sleep mode - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I was speaking idiomatically.
