98/98SE/2000/ME/XP without
having to go through the sometimes tiresome process of closing

is capable of storing all programs and data files during the entire
operating session into RAM (Random Access Memory) when it
powers-off. The operating session will resume exactly where you left
off the next time you power-on the system.
