1. A non-transitory machine readable medium having instructions for a computing system, the instructions when executed cause the computing system to:
- make the computing system operate within a non main CPU/OS processor based operational state while a main system bus of the computing system remains active, wherein one or more functional tasks are operatable by an independent controller while the computing system is within the non main CPU/OS based operational state, the controller being coupled to the main system bus;
retrieve encoded music from a data storage resource that is active while the computing system is operating within the non main CPU/OS based operational state; and
decoding the encoded music while the computing system is within the non main CPU/OS based operational state.

Abstract
A computing system is described that includes a main system bus that remains active while said computing system operates within a non main CPU/OS based operational state. The computing system also includes a controller that operates functional tasks while the computing system is within the non main CPU/OS based operational state. The computing system also includes an I/O unit coupled to the main system bus that remains active while the computing system operates within the non main CPU/OS based operational state.
