Is boot speed really important?
I have several systems, and not one of them suspends/resumes cleanly (let alone hibernate!). And while I envy the people who use iMacs, that simply open the laptop and are ready to work, I prefer the freedom Linux gives me. So I'll keep shutting down the machines until the day comes when suspend/resume works reliably (or nvram becomes standard, whatever comes first).
