Yes.
There is also the SLEEP feature built into Mac OS X, which lets you "boot" your Mac in less than two seconds.

with a standard hdd it will boot in like 35 seconds...with a real SSD more like 12-17 seconds depending on the SSD and how fresh the install is...as you add more programs booting seems to take a little longer (likely due to more processes starting on boot)

Mac OS X normally creates a sleepimage to store the content of the RAM into, in case of battery depletion.
SmartSleep can help set it to something you like and get you sleep times of two seconds.

That's what I do with my Macs. I never turn them off and only put them to bed. Wake time is usually instant (2-3 seconds) and that is with HDD's and not SSDs.
