"San Jose-based startup DeviceVM made waves last year when it unveiled Splashtop, a nearly instant-on Linux environment stored in the flash memory usually reserved for motherboard BIOS. The company previewed an upcoming revision to Splashtop at this year's Consumer Electronics Show in January, then gave us the chance to take a hands-on look at this intriguing system software."

HP's quickplay environment is not linux but Windows XP embedded and uses 1GB from hard disk space.
Also HP's "instant on" means 15seconds POST + 30 seconds boot.
