you know, I'm begining to think this whole "readiness" idea is completely arbitrary. The same people who today complain about linux's supposed difficulty, were just fine using their home micro-computer in the 80's. If you ask me, the only people who are defining what "ready" means, is Microsoft's marketing department.

it doesn't matter if the power drain is low. So long as your computer is on, it's lifetime watt-hours are constantly ticking down.
