HS4 as a Windows Service - Benefits?

There should be a setting in the BIOS on any modern PC (more than the last decade) to indicate the power state once power is restored. You can choose for the laptop to remain off, power on, or last known state.

You kind of already have your answer. If your computer restarts for whatever reason or you simply reboot it there is no need to log in or start the program manually (for the later part you could do auto start upon login). It increases availability of HS better and adds some convenience. You also have the convenience/options of Windows services. You won't see HS4 in the taskbar anymore which for some is good, some not but of course it is still available through the web interface. I really like this feature, though there are more pressing issues to solve (my opinion...)

Right now, I'm just curious.
I was always a network guy, not a software or server tech.
Why do I want to run HS4 as a service? I can see that it would launch before logging in...which would be nice I guess if I had automatic updates turned on maybe.
I keep them off on my standalone HS4 server/laptop so it won't reboot.
