Power management does not work at all in windows. It does not really sleep, and randomly starts spinning the fans at full blast during short times.

On linux you might have to fiddle with configuration, and get unacceptable behavior like black screen and needing a restart after wakeup, until you get it working. But at least you can do something about it.

Only macs seem to get it right out of the box.
