The boot-up time of the Hypersonic Sonic Aviator placed the system at about the middle of the pack. It took the system 36 seconds to go from off to a fully loaded Windows XP Professional desktop. Three notebooks were able to do this faster but only by 5 seconds in the most extreme case.

Out of Standby Time (seconds) WinBook J4 2.4GHz ECS i-Buddie XP 2100+ Dell Inspiron 8200 2.0GHz Toshiba 1905-S277 1.6GHz WinBook N4 1.8GHz Compaq Presario 2800T 1.7GHz ECS i-Buddie 4 1.6GHz Hypersonic Sonic Aviator 3.06GHz 512MB ASUS S1 1.2GHz 5 6 6 6 6 7 7 8 10 | 0 | 2 | 4 | 6 | 8 | 10 | 12

The time it took the Hypersonic Sonic Aviator to come out of standby was not as impressive as the boot up time but was still fair. It took the unit 8 seconds to return from standby. While this made the unit second slowest, it was only 3 seconds slower than the fastest system. We doubt you will be missing those 3 seconds especially considering the fact that the system will certainly make up the time while running applications.

Out of Hibernate Time (seconds) ECS i-Buddie XP 2100+ WinBook N4 1.8GHz Toshiba 1905-S277 1.6GHz Compaq Presario 2800T 1.7GHz Dell Inspiron 8200 2.0GHz ECS i-Buddie 4 1.6GHz ASUS S1 1.2GHz Hypersonic Sonic Aviator 3.06GHz 512MB WinBook J4 2.4GHz 16 16 17 19 21 22 23 25 26 | 0 | 5 | 10 | 16 | 21 | 26 | 31

Again the Hypersonic Sonic Aviator falls second to last, this time in the time needed to return from hibernation. The system was 9 seconds off the lead.
