The system is provided by PortalPlayer Preface, and known officially as Windows Slideshow -- a Vista-only technology that lets you do all of the above while the laptop is switched off, on, or hibernating. PortalPlayer reckons Slideshow will let you access flight departure information, movie show times, alerts, play games, movies, images and MP3s. And the best part: it can run for "hundreds of hours without draining your notebook battery," according to the PortalPlayer site.
| If someone doesn't mind explaining to me what Windows Vista has ANYTHING to do with the computer AT ALL if the computer is TURNED OFF AND NOT RUNNING, I would appreciate it. |
