I thought it would be interesting to see how quickly our PCs can boot into Windows 7 by having a poll. It starts so much quicker than Vista for me!

It takes 24 seconds from the OS selection screen to the logon screen for me (Q6600 @ 3Ghz, 2GB ram, 250GB Sata).

I'm not sure how long it takes to boot, but it's shorter than when I used Windwos XP Pro... So it's now that bad. ;)

23.8 for me. It might be shorter though, because I started the timer then realized that I had to press enter after 1 or 2 seconds. Oh well.

AMD Athlon X2 64 Dual-Core 5200+ 2.7GhZ
2GB 667MhZ DDR RAM
500GB SATA Hard drive

PS. I just thought of this, does anyone know where to get a Windows 7 case badge?

U got a damn fast PC, dude.

Windows 7 needs almost ~30 seconds to boot up in my 4 year old PC. Better than anything else I've ever tried, keeping Mac OS X Leopard, Arch Linux, Fedora, Ubuntu, Vista and XP in mind.
