When I have to reboot, very infrequently, it's a one-off operation, so the boot time doesn't matter, even when I used the work laptop going to other offices and customer sites, it didn't matter. What matters is how fast it runs when it's up, boot time being only an insignificant percentage of total compute time.

I on the other hand am very interested in boot times: standby doesn't work on my laptop, so I shut it down whenever I move it. Which inevitably means waiting for it to boot again when I arrive.
