I happen to like the idea of a flash-based portable IF the memory is fast. 'Instant on' would be preferable to the boot-cycle I currently sit through (granted, booting up is much faster now that it was a few years ago...).
Anyone know how 'instant on' one of these flash laptops would be?

Gentlemen and Ladies:
Read what Mr. Jobs said carefully. Apple will release hardware based on the Intel platform that will run OS/X. He did not say the basic x86 platform will run OS/X. If an Apple-branded oomputer runs OS/X and another OS (Windows XP, Linux, and/or FreeBSD), why would the enterprise NOT buy the apple product?
