Hi everyone.
I've just got my Acer Revo 3610 up and running with Live 10.1 I'm really happy with it so far.
I was just wondering about power usage. Does anyone know roughly what it will use if I leave it in suspend rather than powering it off.
It only takes about 15-20 secs to boot up from cold so I'm not really that bothered. I only have the XBox 1 remote so I can't wake it from suspend anyway with the remote so I've resigned myself to wandering over and hitting the power button however I've shut it down previously.
So it's a choice between shut down and wait 20 secs to boot up when I turn it on (no great hardship) or suspend, use some power but only take 2 secs to boot up again.
