> Does Linux restore the complete memory state of a dead computer when you install the drive in a new machine?

Cookies are generally persisted to disk in one of your browser's many caches.



Bank logins use session cookies that are cleared when the browser closes. Unless RAM is preserved you'll need to re-open your browser, so they'll be lost.

I don't think it restores cookies. It just loads the pages again.
