You're after the wrong target, sir. If you want to have your computer off, but available quickly, you should look to get suspension work right. Suspend to RAM is as quickly as 1 to 2 seconds in each direction (on -> off or off -> on). So, before you could take a full breath, the computer is fully booted, with all needed apps running and ready to take your notes.
The drawback is, on commodity PCs, suspend to RAM rarely works to full satisfaction. State of the art are Macintoshes; Linux and friends have still to catch up in this area.
