Instant-on PCs Could Take off With Netbooks

,----[ Quote ]
| Phoenix introduced its own quick-boot environment for netbooks called 
| HyperSpace Dual at CES. Offered as a quick-boot option to Windows, many of 
| the applications included in the instant-on Linux software are browser-based. 
| It can be installed on netbooks or laptops, and can be downloaded from 
| Phoenix's Web site. It is priced at US$39.95 for one year and $99.95 for 
| three years.

A Close Look At Phoenix’s HyperSpace

,----[ Quote ]
| With all the talk there's been about Linux displacing Windows on the desktop, 
| the big question is how is it going to happen? Here's one possibility: it 
| will outflank it. One way this may happen is through HyperSpace, Phoenix 
| Technologies' Linux-based boot environment that could give people one less 
| reason to boot regularly into Windows.

| Freescale is also looking to add fast-boot capabilities to future Linux-based
| netbooks with its Arm-based i.MX515 processors, which the company introduced
| at CES. The company demonstrated an i.MX515-powered netbook made by Pegatron,
| an Asus spin-off, at the show.

Splashtop: boot into Linux in just five seconds

,----[ Quote ]
| I have a quad-core CPU, super-fast hard disks and heaps of RAM
| – Linux is already pretty darn nippy if you ask me!
|
| Perhaps. But, let's face it: if it takes more than 30
| seconds to get from pressing the power button to you
| reading your email, that's 30 seconds you could have
| spent chatting to the pretty lady in the cubicle next
| to you, reading the latest XKCD comic or – most
| importantly of all – basking in the glow of the
| most recent issue of Linux Format magazine.
