Correction: this has nothing to see with having a laptop, a desktop or a
iMac, having the power plugged or not. I have observed it first when my
kids said iMac was crap because they could not play their favorite game
more than a minute - after this delay the iMac would slow down
dramatically. That was a game where they used only the keyboard. They had
to permanently move the mouse to keep the game alive.

I supppose that's what Apple calls "a better experience".
