See my previous topic. Any instant on system that requires a constant on voltage source(however small) is prone to failure some time ir another. The new memory that IBM is working on is magnetic and requires a voltage only to change the contents or data much like flash cards. Recording tape does this however we have to stream recording tape which is slow. A flash card blast it at you in an instant much like the old carts of the atari and commador era. Instant on and last state are just around the corner.
