To me, it's a miracle how every tiny article on OSNews.com, or any other tech-site, ends up in people shouting all sorts of nonsense at each other like "Linux is gonna bring back Elvis", "Windows shot president Kennedy", "Linux kept the cold war cold" or "Bill Gates wants to buy the moon and charge people for looking at it". Do these people really know what they are saying, or are they just going with the Open-Source flow? Update: Rebuttal article here.

>Okay...what's your bootup time and what distro of Linux are you using?
I am using all sort of Linux distros. Boot time is between 45 seconds to 2 minutes. Depends what's gets loaded. In a very clean distro, like Gentoo, I get boot times of only 20 seconds.
Then again, WindowsXP also loads in about 20 seconds, and BeOS in 8. ;-)
