Phoenix’s Instant Boot loads Windows 7 in 10 ticks

Here we have a Lenovo T400s laptop running a clean version of Windows 7 and Phoenix’s Instant Boot BIOS.  Note: The laptop is not coming out of sleep mode; it is in the off-state at the start of the video.  It “boots in about one second and will get you to the Windows 7 desktop in less than eleven seconds.”  That is speedy!  However, as Gizmodo points out, it must be taken into consideration that this quick boot time is helped by a solid-state hard drive and a bloatware-free copy of Windows with Areo visualizations turned off.
