PS 30 secs or less on mine as well. Interesting thing, a mate demanded a side
by side (well using the same computer, mine) of win10 boot up vs Ali's roll
of PCLOS aka Big Daddy. BD booted, in less then 30s, to desktop where it took
win10 an entire 2.4 mins average to boot to desktop. It also took up massive
amounts of initial storage space. He's now only using win10 for gaming. He's
now "one of us!"
