Let's break the Hibernate-PC continuum!

Somewhere around 1999, Windows introduced the Hibernate feature in Windows Millennium edition if I remember correctly. I was unaware of Linux back then so not sure if it was something copied from Linux like so many other features. But that's not the point here.
The point is that the feature rocked my world. We all know what Hibernate does and how awesome it is. How much time it saves due to fast booting and how much effort it saves and so on.

But it's been more than a decade now and I am surprised no one has come up with something beyond the hibernate. I mean we are all stuck with Shut Down, Stand By, Log Off, Restart and Hibernate since a decade now! We need a new feature! I was thinking about this today morning and I did come up with one such feature.
We should take hibernate to its next level. How? Well, currently, to put in a crude manner, hibernate saves the state in a file called hiberfile.sys which is basically the contents of the RAM. And when the system is turned back ON the contents are loaded back to the RAM.

Now here is the upgrade I suggest: I hibernate my system, copy the hiberfile.sys to a pendrive. Travel across the globe to some corner of the earth, turn ON a system there and load the hiberfile from my earlier system to this PC! How awesome would that be? Of course, it's not as simple as it sounds, we all know that. Something similar has already been achieved through clouds. But bringing the feature to PC would rock my world once more.

I don't honestly know if its feasible or not. Or if it's already been implemented. But I think it's worth a try anyways!
