Do you know how Intel does "Instant On"? They shut off the video output and mute the sound output. That's it. When turned "On", it merely turns on the video and unmutes the audio. It doesn't even slow down the CPU or puts it into some sleep state prior to turning it "Off".

Done that way, all modern computers can be set to do Intel's "Instant On". Set power management to turn the monitor off and sound off after x minutes. Wait the idle time indicated and Viola! The screen goes off and the sound mutes. Now move the mouse or type a shift key and WOW, the system "Instant Ons!"

Just more marketing spin instead of the real deal. Typical Intel garbage.
