I believe that HP are using Splashtop OS to achieve 'Instant-on' 
functionality, which is running an embedded Linux kernel from ROM, with 
bootsplash, squashfs, and blackbox as the main binaries.  Asus, Acer and 
others also joined in the fun.

Unless I got this wrong, the PC is essentially dual booting between the ROM 
resident OS and the disk OS.  The latter can be any OS inc. Gentoo of course.
