In computing, instant-on is the ability to boot nearly instantly, allowing to go online or to use a specific application without waiting for a PC's traditional operating system to launch. Instant-on technology is today mostly used on laptops, netbooks, and nettops because the user can boot up one program, instead of waiting for the PC's operating system to boot. This allows a user to launch a single program, such as a movie-playing program or an internet browser, without the need of the whole operating system. There still remain a few true instant-on machines such as the Atari ST, as described in the Booting article.

  • In computing, instant-on is the ability to boot nearly instantly, allowing to go online or to use a specific application without waiting for a PC's traditional operating system to launch. Instant-on technology is today mostly used on laptops, netbooks, and nettops because the user can boot up one program, instead of waiting for the PC's operating system to boot. This allows a user to launch a single program, such as a movie-playing program or an internet browser, without the need of the whole operating system. There still remain a few true instant-on machines such as the Atari ST, as described in the Booting article. These machines had complete Operating Systems resident in ROM similar to the way in which the BIOS function is conventionally provided on current computer architectures. The "instant-on" concept as used here results from loading an OS, such as a legacy system DOS, with a small hard drive footprint. Latency inherent to mechanical drive performance can also be eliminated by using Live USB or flash memory to load systems at electronic speeds which are orders of magnitude faster. (en)
  • En los ordenadores, instant on (encendido instantáneo) es la capacidad de arrancar (boot) casi instantáneamente, de tal manera que se pueda estar en línea o usar una aplicación específica sin tener que esperar que sea lanzado el sistema operativo tradicional del PC. Hoy en día, la tecnología instant-on es sobre todo usada en laptops, netbooks y nettops porque el usuario puede arrancar un programa inmediatamente, en vez de esperar que arranque todo el sistema operativo del PC. Por ejemplo, un usuario puede solo querer ejecutar un software de reproducción de películas o ejecutar un navegador de Internet, sin la necesidad del sistema operativo completo. (es)
  • インスタント機能(インスタントきのう)とは、パーソナルコンピュータにおいて、電源オフの状態から、WindowsなどのOS起動処理を行なわず、即時にテレビ視聴などの処理を行なえる機能。メーカーによって、インスタントモード、INSTANT PLAY(インスタント プレイ)、インスタントオンなどとも呼ばれる。 (ja)
  • Nei computer, instant-on, è la capacità di avvio (boot) quasi istantaneamente, in modo da poter essere in linea o utilizzare una applicazione specifica, senza dover attendere per un PC l'avvio del sistema operativo tradizionale. Oggi la tecnologia instant-on è usato soprattutto nei computer portatili, netbook e nettop, perché l'utente può avviare un programma immediatamente invece di aspettare di avviare l'intero sistema operativo del PC. Ad esempio, un utente può solo voler utilizzare un software per la riproduzione di film o di eseguire un browser web senza la necessità del sistema operativo completo. (it)
