Why are people so fascinated about boot up times? There really isn't much of a benefit if an OS boots up faster than another OS or computer b/c in the end the user is going to spend more time siting in front of a booted computer and not in front of a booting computer. I guess this is some sort of intolerance of patience that has built up in our society since things have become so on-demand.
