    I love using QuickWeb instead of having to boot up to the normal O/S. Does anyone know if there is an update to this service from version 1.2.16.0 and how I would go about updating it?

    Spend 2 minutes to bootup to get to the web on an unreliable O/S, or 15 seconds to get web access on a solid Linux variant...real hard decision.

    If I had those boot times, QuickWeb would be nonexistent. So you're saying that an SSD card will get you to the Win 7 OS in less than 20 sec? If so, I'm getting one.
