Video: Quick Start Episode 2

I have a computer that takes many minutes to boot. But I have an ass ton of hard disks, even though I have a boot SSD. https://photos.app.goo.gl/p3DgLf6ZPJj1TaPF6

QQ is still a thing in China BTW. Used it as my main email for years before they locked me out a couple weeks ago.

waiiit a second, i think i have a HP notebook with that features you mentioned at home guess i know what i'll do tonight :D

Fun fact: I had an Asus MB that had the same USB flash drive soldered to the board, but it did not include the express gate OS. Instead, the drive was visible on Windows. It was marketed as an accelerated memory, like something you should tell the OS to use as cache. Well, flash does have faster seek speeds than an HD, but I remember it being pretty useless (it's was just 512MB when 2GB RAM setups were common). I ended up using it for storing bios updates and such, it was very useful for that. The MB name was (funny enough) "ASUS P5B-Plus Vista Edition" And here's the marketing for the stupid soldered flash drive: ASAP(ASUS Accelerated Propeller) Support Windows Vista ReadyBoost™ technology for greater productivity! ASAP gets you to your destination ASAP. ASAP supports the Windows ReadyBoost™ technology which improves system performance under Windows Vista. Enjoy greater efficiency and get more productivity out of your system - ASAP. BTW, This version of the MB had one less USB header on the board because of this feature.

This is a cool series. Great job (have a trophy 🏆 since we're doing homestar runner references)

Is it possible the OS was using a ram disk tmpfs mount for /tmp and anything else it required writing? Does it actually *save* bookmarks between boots? This may be answered before the end of the video.
