Trust Issues

One feature of the CR-48 is that it powers on automatically when you open the lid.  Another feature is that it boots up scary fast.  When you put both of these together, especially in the morning and before coffee, the experience is quite enough to make one wonder if the system had really been off or merely in sleep mode.

This morning, when it came on so quickly, I had my doubts that I had actually succeeded in turning it off last night, or perhaps the system had tricked me.  Where you really off, cr-48?

After due consideration, I think it really was off.  Otherwise the battery would have less juice in it than it has.  I think.

I'll have to keep an eye on this just to make sure that Google isn't up to their usual shenanigans.  It would be just like them to not only make an awesome laptop but to also have it powered by an internal perpetual motion machine.
