Just the amount of effort required to put the computer to sleep... ugh.

The instructions are:

1) (Sometimes) when you hover in a corner a menu will popup or press WIN + C.

2) Click settings (in the midst of 4(?) other options)

3) Click the power button.

4) Click the desired state.

Way too many paths in that state diagram for a typical user. For the common tasks, I expect to make two-three transitions with limited, unambiguous, options. Some of my workflow has transitioned to passing four to five states (usually in Metro at this point), back to desktop, to Chrome to locate help, back to the beginning of the state diagram to perform my original task.
