Only if it could hibernate one OS and switch to the other in seconds, otherwise it'd ruin the benefits connected-standby-always-on, hell I sleep my gaming PC rather than turn it off... hate turning things off or restarting them it's so tiresome...

Without trying to sound rude, but isn't that just laziness? Most computers now especially SSD equipped boot in seconds.

Still means closing down all applications and then slowly reopening them all up again.

Sure I guess you could open them automatically if it matters that much..


As for me, I don't like to restart often because of the above but also because I have some hardware with fussy drivers installed - and so not only do I need to disable driver signature enforcement manually every boot, I also run the risk of it not working properly and requiring a further restart. At least with leaving it on all the time means I only run the risk of blue screening it if I accidentally unplug it
