I think HP has a feature called QuickLook you can Bing/Google for that. My 
guess would be that they have an Outlook plug-in that exports info info XML 
that they encrypt and squirrel away on a non OS partition, and on OS Boot/S3 
resume they sync up the cached copy with Outlook proper. 

I've seen folks in the past pushing booting an embedded Linux to do things 
quickly on your system, since the real OS boots so slow. Ockham's razor, and 
simplicity being the ultimate sophistication, would imply a faster booting OS 
would solve this problem. Unfortunately in the pre post-PC world platform 
vendors don't always have the option to solve the real issue.

It is unclear to me who is crazier on this front?
