With m.2s around it takes less than a minute to go from the start button to the desktop. Haven't put my pc to sleep since upgrading to that
My company's IT department: "hold my beer. Keep holding it. Now decrypting. Now opening spyware one to 20. Open random cmds that do nothing. Quick virus scan. An update? Better reboot in the next 5 min. The beer? It's warm now"
Ahh, yes. The unplanned lunch break when you need a hard reboot because your environment is fucky.
And that reboot after update is guaranteed, because you haven't restarted in weeks due to how long it takes
After all that you get to tinker around with their shit VPN client that only works during one phase of the moon.
I wish. Work issued me a previous gen zbook (well, it was over one year ago), and it takes forever before Windows is started and usable, and every month I have one more Window that I have to close on startup, for some reason.
Fuckin Teams opening my last chat in foreground when I log in, great design MS!
