Case in point: my laptop (running the Windows 10 it came with) recently stopped hibernating properly, well it hibernates OK but half the time when it wakes up the screen does not turn on, and this evening it has decided that it doesn't want to be asleep while plugged in. If I tell it to sleep (through power key or start menu) while plugged in it does very temporarily and then returns to the login screen. If I tell it to sleep when running on battery it does but immediately wakes up once power is connected. While Linux distros are far from free from random problems at times, in my experience Windows exhibits them more and tends to be harder to diagnose because more is hidden.
