I will be in a 4hr car drive, but I still have a lot of unfinished editing jobs that I don't want to close in Ubuntu, because I will have to take notes of what is left for each job so that I can resume it.

shall I suspend Ubuntu, or shut it down, for data and laptop safety during the long car drive?

Thanks.

Maybe shut down and take a nap. Suspend will still keep some software in RAM memory, thus eating some battery. Probably not much, but enough to make a difference in some situations. That's for laptops.
If you're planning to take notes on an Ubuntu tablet or convertible, i see no reason to shut down. God, i wish i'd have a Galaxy tablet with Ubuntu on it!
