In the article comments, I find it amusing that there's yet another argument about boot times. Boot times really don't matter anymore for desktop use - they're just not rebooted that often, and long gone are the days when your (w98) OS would crash several times a day. Boot times under 30s or so really don't matter these days for desktops. VMs that you're stopping and starting, sure. Resume from sleep, sure. But saying that one OS is better than another because it takes 5s to 'boot' instead of 10s is bikeshedding. (windows cheats here anyway, because it shows you the desktop before it's ready to be interacted with)
