Actually some of the old PCs are that way too.
When I started out as a young aircraft technician, the general rule was to keep the electronics running, "hot." It always seemed that the equipment usually "blew" on cutting it on or off.
Of course if only a battery is powering the equipment, there are problems with that idea, but my desktop at home is always on, 24x7. It will take the screen a second to brighten up once you touch the mouse.
I usually touch the mouse as I am sitting down, and the screen is there when I have positioned the office chair.
