A computer feature that many
people do not use, which allows the computer to to shut down while playing
music, games videos, browsing, and running antivirus scans all at the same time. When the computer turns on again, all tasks resume at where they were as if nothing happened.
Despite how awesome that is, most
people still close down all their programs and shut down, only to have to start them up again when rebooting.
The idea behind it is simple. Take pretty much everything on the
RAM and copy it to C:\hiberfil.sys, which is read again when the system resumes.
Fred was Photoshopping, video editing, chatting, browsing, playing Crysis, writing
music, and working in 3D Studio Max on his laptop, but he had to pack up and go to
work so he simply saved all his
work and hibernated the system.
