With proper sleep/hibernate, the power useage issue would be (mostly) moot. However, just when I get my sleep/hybrid sleep/hibernate working correctly, MSFT patches Windows and I'm suddenly back to square one.
I'd love to see a version of Windows where sleep "just works". From my research though, this appears to be as much a hardware + driver issue as an OS issue. Apparently that's why Mac's sleep so well. Hardware/OS all under one company's control.
- barrkel 16y agoThat's interesting - the only machine I've had which couldn't sleep under Windows is my Mac Air, whose drivers are supplied by Apple. The Mac Air Windows drivers also don't provide a way of turning off the wifi on flights, amongst other things.
