It's funny to me that NO power saving features work in Windows 8, nor

It's a funny world, here's how, let me explain the road map for you:
In 1 year, Windows will work worse on that particular laptop. In 2 years,
it will be expired. In 4 years, it will barely work. That is a result of
chasing new sales.
In 1 year, OpenBSD will work better on that laptop. In 2 years, it will be
work even better. In about 4 years, it will work as well, but the decline
will start because our developers will move on. That is an aspect of minimal
refinement, not chasing the curve.
In 1 year, Linux might work better. In 2 years, it will not work well.
But hey, don't take my word for me. Ask the net. They'll set me straight,
and they'll set you straight. I don't know what they are chasing. Maybe
it is the same as the first. Really, honestly, I don't have a clue what
they are chasing.
Wow, this is the kind of e-mail I want to read in the (well, sort of)
morning. <3
