You have moved your finger; Surface™ must be restarted

@ SpitefulGOD: Oh, please. Windows is resource-hungry because it's bloated, badly-written, and has tried to integrate every possible application directly into the OS (which is the exact opposite of an efficient, secure OS). It has millions of lines of undocumented code of which even Microsoft doesn't the use nor purpose.

My OS of choice does not have the Web browser, a word processor, a media player, nor even the GUI bundled (and locked) into the kernel. And it's not prone to sudden, complete collapse, either. Funny, that.
