My daughter has a laptop (HP) that came with this feature. It boots in a couple of seconds. If the user does nothing for ten seconds, it then proceeds to boot Windows. It features a web browser, mailer and even a Skype client. Convenient if one just needs to hop online for a couple of minutes. They get the fast boot by stripping everything out of the Linux kernel except the precise set of drivers needed for the specific system in question.
