A new virtualized Linux boot environment is out: HyperSpace. Similar to SplashTop, there is one huge difference between the two: SplashTop is only offered through OEM bundles, directly installed in the system BIOS. HyperSpace can be downloaded and installed on *existing* Vista and XP machines, giving them faster boot times and better security.
