The bias is in the title and the spin. By this logic one should be able to claim "No health benefits to eating veggies not soaked in arsenic". Veggies soaked in arsenic have all of the same vitamins and nutritional content and veggies not soaked in arsenic. Therefore they are just as healthy! All those anti-arsenic-soaked-vegetable conspiracy nuts can just shut up now.

It's not available yet, but Xandros Presto ( http://www.prestomypc.com/ ) is designed to do just this (boot quickly into a simple setup). The fast-boot parts are similar to those in the EeePC version of Xandros which does indeed get up and going really fast (whatever else you might think of Xandros) I'm skeptical about a lot of the suggestions for generic lightweight linux distributions, since even though these run on underpowered machines, few of them actually put any thought into optimizing boot time.
