Tons.

The most noticable to a layman user is the ability to turn off the computer when clicking shut down. In a standard PC you still have to use the power button afterwards.

Since like, 1999, there's been zero reason to revert to standard PC from an initial ACPI install. However if a computer installed as a standard PC even if ACPI was enabled in the BIOS, it's best to leave it that way. Many VIA crap from yesteryear fell into this category.

Is there any advantage in W2K to run as ACPI as opposed to Standard PC?
