We want our computers to be as fast as possible, and one of the most annoying issue with today's operating-systems has been slow booting time. While there are already various developments going on to make computer booting faster, how about an Instant-On addon to your existing operating-system for times when you want fast-access to internet, email, chat, multimedia and files on your computer without needing to boot-up the fully-loaded operating-system ?
Well if you said "yes" Splashtop OS is for you - a fast instant-on Linux-based platform running Chromium delivering power-on and go desktop experience, Splastop OS has been available for quite some time as an customized OEM bundle with various laptops and net-books and now has been made available for free to anyone as an install on top of your existing OS version.
After installation when you computer power is switched-on it boots into Splashtop which automatically boots-out to Windows after pre-configured time passes without any action.
Key Benefits include:
• Starts in seconds - way before Windows
• Features Instant Search powered by Bing
• Comes pre-installed with Adobe Flash® Player for complete web-experience

Works fine on my old XP Pro SP3 laptop
I had no problems getting Splashtop OS to work on my 5 year old Dell XP Pro SP3 laptop. It just adds a boot option, so you can choose whether to boot into XP or Splashtop. Ubuntu does this too.
Hardware Limitations:
You can add Apps from Google Chrome's web site.
