Reply #1 - Feb 6^th, 2016 at 10:08am Herby - it depends on what programs are in your boot up list. Get this: Advanced SystemCare Pro 9.1 http://download.cnet.com/Advanced-SystemCare-Pro/3000-2086_4-75628962.html It allows you to scan the boot up list & remove unnecessary programs to decrease boot up time.

I've already got half-a-dozen programs that can 'disable' Startup programs.

But I'll check it out any way.

Oops - the reviews are very bad. I'll give it a miss, but thanks anyway.

Whatever you do - let your computer boot up fully -
even leave for 3 minutes to let it do some basic house keeping
before you use it.

Disregard those silly reviews - it's the best thing since sliced bread.

More RAM - yes, I'm bustin' to get some more as soon as I can hustle a few coins together after having spent $1,300 on getting one of my trees removed.

Someone here said get no more than 8GB - but Neferti has a whopping 16GB of RAM ...

I kid you not.

Chromebooks don't have Windows or any other nonsense.

It starts in about 2 seconds, and goes to my homepage within about 5 seconds.

Best thing since sliced bread.

"Newer Chromebooks have 5 second boot up time".

I have 8Gb in my laptop with I7 processor it's fast, a desktop I am building will have 16Gb for work graphics.

Get more ram and pay $10 bucks a year for Kaspersky from MSY then you can uninstall all those bullshit programs that are supposed to make your computer run better.

My MacAir laptop takes 15 seconds, but five of those are wifi connecting to the router.

I have 4Gb RAM, enough for what I use it for now.

My primary school teacher sister has a chromebook and loves it, said something about being able to enlarge parts of the screen. But I like Mac so after I physically destroyed my MacAir 11" I got a MacAir 13" and love it. Heavier than the 11" but that is the trade off.

(When I had a glass of water in my hand the back of my office–type chair fell off and I ended up on my back on the floor. Very amusing—until I saw I had spilled water on the keyboard!)
