Your comments were not really constructive, helpful, or nor do they in anyway acknowledge a very real problem with an ubuntu installation gone very wrong. It takes nearly 5 minutes to boot. Nothing that I have done changed any configuration other then stock installation. I have enjoyed the look into the Unix world enough however that I decided to give Unix a closer look and finally bought a Mac. Hopefully with professional coordinated support I will not experience the same problems. If the lack of support in the Ubuntu community breeds frustration in new users, it is hardly a fix for more experienced users to take the tack of less that constructive criticism of that frustration. Reeling off benchmarks of seconds means absolutely NOTHING to those forced to wait nearly 5 minutes for THEIR particular machine to boot up.
