How often do you boot? I'm of the old-skool Unix generation when 500 day uptime on a SPARC or similar was normal and even 1000 day wasn't considered particularly impressive. And we never worried about what was or wasn't started at boot, cos that was easy. |

But I've yet to experience those kind of uptimes for my laptop - either I forget to plug the charger in, or I've dropped it, or it's decided to shut down because "someone" in my house decided that covering the went with a blanket was a good idea.
It just lives a much harsher life, and as a result boot times matter because these things have a way of always happening when I urgently need to do something.
