I'm not sure if this new product is worth it. When I've been on older machines, I just try to start it and then do another task for a few minutes. The wait is a good opportunity to do something like some sit ups or knitting. I’ve found the older the computer, the longer it takes too warm-up. I’m not sure if this new product is worth it.

It goes to sleep automatically after a few minutes of not being used and then I hit the space bar and it comes awake within 3 seconds. I only reboot about twice a year.

Instead, they offer a primitive, bare-bones user interface that relies on Web-based applications. For example, you can send and receive email, but only by using a Web-based email program like Gmail or Hotmail. Documents must be created using a program like Google Docs, and when you watch videos, you must use a player like YouTube rather than something like Windows Media Player or QuickTime. Photos can be viewed either via a photo Web site like Flickr or in the HyperSpace browser. Nothing like Word or PowerPoint is available in this slimmed-down environment.”[AllThingsD] [...] [...] “It’s misleading to say that the Phoenix HyperSpace products offer a faster way to start up your computer, because they don’t actually open Windows, which is your computer’s heart and soul.
