Vista to boot up in 2-3 seconds
The Microsoft web site reports that under vista your computer will boot in around 2 to 3 seconds. That is very impressive. This is likely due to the major rewrite that Windows has undergone to deliver Vista. But even so that is very impressive.
This will be great in particular for notebook and tablet pc users to instantly get their machines up and running for use.
‘Fast On and Off: A Windows Vista computer starts and shuts down as quickly and reliably as a television, typically within 2 to 3 seconds. Windows Vista processes login scripts and startup programs and services in the background so you can start working right away. You’ll also shut down and restart your computer less often by using the New Sleep state, a simple one-click on and off experience which not only reduces power consumption, but also delivers and protects user dat. ‘
By the way Microsoft, I think you mean ‘data’ for the last word on your web page.

Nice. But how long will it take to log on and off? To log on and off with mapped drives and running applications? To log on and off in an Active Directory environment?
Fast boot and shut down are nice. But until I actually log in, every computer is a pile of plastic with no idea what to do with itself.

Yeah. Good question. I don’t tend to use mapped drives.
I thought it would be some sort of suspend system which would include runnning apps.

Yeah. Well looking-back. MS SAID it would take 2-3 seconds. It doesnt.
I have to wait at least 5minutes watching that BORING simple loading bar, followed by another 5mintutes loggin in.
Computer is 4gig RAM, 160Gb Hard Drive. Etc. And only had vista on for a day. So it’s no hardware conflicts etc…

Well that turned out to be a lie, Vista takes much longer to boot than 2-3 seconds…
