My i-rocks keyboard does not have a sleep button but I think it would be convenient for how much I drop what I am doing and run out the door...I always go to the sleep tile in the start screen.

I was thinking there might be a way to set hot keys on a universal keyboard or do I need 3rd party software??

I have a right click menu key on the right side of the space bar between Alt & Ctrl I never use and that would be a great sleep hot key...

    Windows 8 Pro x64
Windows Key + → + → + S + Enter works.

The → means Right Arrow Key.

Or you could create a shortcut to:

rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState 0,1,0

and assign a hotkey combo in the properties window of the shortcut.

According to Google search....
