Ubuntu 10.04 sports a MUCH faster bootup than previous versions. This is a spinning hard disk drive. I wish I had an SSD, because the bootup would be even faster. This is Lucid Lynx Beta 2.
Machine specifications:
- Laptop: Dell Studio 1537
- Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0 GHz w/ 2 MB L2 cache. (Dual core CPU with Upstart in Ubuntu allows for faster boot up as both cores are used.)
- Main memory: 3 GB DDR2 (or DDR3, not sure)
- Disk drive: WD 250GB 5400 RPM 2.5" HDD
- Video/Graphics: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3450 w/ 256 MB dedicated video RAM
- OS: Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx Beta 2
- Browser: Mozilla Firefox v3.63 for Ubuntu
