@Shakleton42 linux sucks because it's not compatible with iphone/ipod touch/ipad you can't transfer apps back to your computer running linux linux are for people who don't use ipad, iphone and ipod touch linux is for nerd people
its really tottaly wrong to say that a machine boots faster than another..it all very much depands on the rams in your computer AND how much data you have on your HDD and how many login items you have..
Also remember, more ram or more hard drive space used means a slower boot. I recently put another gig of ram in my MacBook (now 2) and I've found that it takes a lot longer to boot. It's because of the diagnostic tests ran at startup
My MacBook Pro boots faster than my PowerMac Quad G5. I think it has to do with the time it takes for the processor itself to start. The G5 is VERY powerful. Much more powerful than the Intel chip in your MacBook. I assume a more powerful processor would take longer to startup, but I'm not positive on this.
Nothing starting at boot... Mine isn't THAT fast anymore.... Still faster (by a mile) than windows but bootup is bogged down by quicksilver, jumpcut, virtueDesktops, M-beat, UNO, and a couple others.
the macBook isn't starting anything in the background (I can see it in your video) the g5 is starting something. Mine starts MUCH more than that at boot.
wow, thats a fast boot up, especially for a macbook i didnt think they hauled that much, sad when the dell core 2 duo notebook i had took like 32 seconds or more to boot right out of the box after configured the imac i have stomps em both though
Note: It took about 22 to boot for the mac. I want to see a Pc that do that. I own a alienware and It does not boot that fast and they are the best windows-based pcs shiped.
Mac boot process is shit, anyway. "20 seconds of grey logo, half a second of progress bar". Wtf is the point of the boot screen if you only see it for a couple frames?
Not even talking about programs, just about external devices like cameras or hard drives, the Mac recognizes it. It's just more convenient. PCs are better in a lot of aspects but most people like macs cuz they're user friendly and nice looking
I'd really like to see a faster boot than that, that only took 22 seconds. My new macbook boots in about 15 seconds, my PC, brand new as well, takes up to a minute and a half to boot. Macs rock
actually I don't care about macs and i didn't ask you to reply, and no he's got 21" dell TFT's and, of course you think it's useless but wait until you try it and comment after... (he's got his game of WoW running on the middle monitor and the others show conversation windows or browser it's like 3 computers but controlled with one mouse/keyboard...
my friend just built a kick ass extreme PC (intel core duo extreme+ATIradeonx1800 on 3 TFT lcd's) and before he met me he was going to buy a mac.(can u plug 3 19inch TFT screens to your cute pretty mac? I don't think so... btw have you ever heard of Hibernate? my pc boots in 15seconds...
Hibernate is on Mac too, but it's ready in 0.5 seconds :-) And yes you can use 2 of 30 inches display on some mac. Or more if you want. But i think your friend like more his 15 inches displays :-) x 3
Hibernate still runs your computer. This is talking about turning on the entire OS and going through the real processes, not picking up where you left off. And I don't see any reason why I'd want anything past two and even two is pushing it.

You still wasted your money PC though...it will always be slower than a mac and the OS won't be as advanced on it - ever.
I'm sure there is a way to plug 3 monitors into a Mac, the only question is, why the hell do you want 3 monitors?
