I feel sorry for the people who still use ME.... I use XP and it boots up just fine, jiggle the mouse and its up (Oh you mean after i shut it down?? ~30 seconds).... Although, XP sucks cause it has too much bloat-ware in it. Oh well, 24/7 up time to thank for it. It will be awhile before we have 'instant on' computers, this is because even though computers are getting faster, the ammound they have to do at start up and store in ram is also growing and will likely keep syncronized for some time to come. The reason we restart is to flush the ram and it takes time to fill that ram back up at boot.
