1231406 2011-09-19 07:47:00 Hmm, mine takes the same or more time compared to Windows 7. sahilcc7 (15483)
1231407 2011-09-19 10:50:00 Not bad tho for an os thats still in development it can only get better normally they start out bad and get worse this time i think it will get a lot better due to a much faster boot time and very stable os this has to be a first for MS. Hitech (9024)
