Interesting article. I have to differ on two topics: leaving superfetch and restore points enabled. Not on laptops, IMNSHO.
When running on batteries, the last thing I want is superfetch banging away on the disk, burning battery and slowing the machine down post boot.
When sprinting for the ferry, I want the laptop to shut down FAST. If it has just decided to set a restore point, it can take MINUTES. Not good.
