There seems to be a real range here, depending on the
hardware and other factors not known to me. An IBM
T-43 that I have temporary access to at this location
has a relatively fresh install of XP Pro on it, and
seems to come up from OFF in just under 30 seconds.
That's about the best I've seen for W2K or XP.
