    it’s not just the software that runs better, in many cases it’s the hardware too.

    Take laptop batteries for example. users will state over and over how their batteries last a lot longer when their system is running linux as opposed to windows.

      It used to be the opposite a lot of the time. Power management used to be a huge problem. Lately though things got a lot better.
