Hibernation
Hibernation is a very useful feature. People frequently open many applications when
they use computers. It takes some time to get all these applications open and running,
and normally they all have to be closed before the computer can be turned off.
When you use the hibernation feature, you do not have to close the applications.
The Rugged PC stores the state of your Rugged PC to a file on the hard disk
and then shuts down. The next time you turn on your Rugged PC, you return to
exactly where you left off.
