Windows boots in 40 seconds, to be honest, 5 seconds is not going to
make much of a difference. At least to my friends.

But the non-existant network connection is a bit of a problem, I think.
I noticed a spec that looks like it might have a stab at solving this:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkMagic Its status is "approved. Needs
guidance. blocked". Not sure whether that means it will get implemented
or not.

Øivind, just a quick side comment on list etiquette: can you try and
bottom-post after a quote which you are replying to, and reply-to-list
rather than reply to all? Otherwise, I get two copies of your mails.
have a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ListiQuette for some vague
guidance.

Thanks!
