I find it hard to believe that, outside of work computers, many people would be choosing Windows over Mac or Linux, especially is AI is their goal.

I'm also curious why the comments are turned off for this article unless it is a paid ad for Microsoft.

Yep, I find booting from off is as fast (and maybe faster) than coming out of hibernation these days. It's definitely more fluid.

My SMB IT friends disable hibernation when they deploy laptops. Users don't reboot enough as it is, hibernation can be problematic, and wastes hard drive space (at least 16 gig, because they don't spec any less)
