Wasted days and wasted nights…..

I’ve just stumbled upon something rather…..baffling.

Very conservatively, I’ve easily spent over 6 months of my life waiting for computers to reboot.

3x a day average (suffice to say I’ve had my hands on more than one PC in my day)

8 minutes average from shutdown click to being able to use the PC again after reboot.

(some take 3 minutes, and some monster systems (remember Novell?) take half an hour)

7 days a week, 365 days a year, for 30 years.

Wow.
