In Age of Impatience, Cutting Computer Start Time
,----[ Quote ]
| Until Microsoft comes up with a way to greatly shorten the time it takes to
| load Windows, PC makers are speeding up boot times using programs that bypass
| Windows. The systems vary technically, but they all rely on a version of an
| operating system called Linux that gives users quick access to Web browsing
| and other basic functions of their computer. In some cases, Windows never
| boots, while in others, Windows starts in the background.
|
| DeviceVM, the maker of a fast-boot program called Splashtop, says it charges
| PC makers $1 to $2 a machine for its software. The company hopes to make more
| revenue over the long term by charging other software providers that want to
| include their applications in the menu of programs accessible without a full
| boot.
