 |  Phoenix's Optimized BIOS starts PCs in less than 10 seconds Phoenix is showing off a few interesting things at IDF, but the real standout is their new Instant Boot BIOS, a highly optimized UEFI implementation that can start loading an OS in just under a second. Combined with Windows 7's optimized startup procedure, that means you're looking at incredibly short boot times -- we saw a retrofitted Dell Adamo hit the Windows desktop in 20 seconds, while a Lenovo T400s with a fast SSD got there in under 10. http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/24/v...dows-in-under/

| ~32 seconds to 7's desktop if restarting, just a 7200.10 Seagate hard drive. Phoenix Optimized BIOS + Ubuntu 9.10 + SSD should be killer. |

| My 7 needs ~1m30 before it's usefull on a Dell Insprion 6400. 10sec before bootloader shows 36sec for the login-screen to show Another 25sec before the desktop shows up and 20 seconds for Opera to launch (clicked on it while it was starting up). |
