Jose made an unrelated post without seeing your posts that just happened to blow you arguments out of the water: he uses his Amiga for his music because it boots faster than windows. And Linux unless (maybe) you can be arsed creating a custom Linux. Clearly you can be arsed. The rest of the world have got better things to do then that. Jose gave a real-world example of how his Amiga is superior to the PC- YOUR PC included.
Jose has made a post that just brought here another questionable attitude with technology we can agree with or not. Jose has all the rights to decide that the best feature for a music recording equipment is a fast boot time, but if I had to record music I have in my head, I would be happier to wait 2 more seconds to do that on modern applications for MacOS X and, why not, Windows, which maybe will provide more processing options, memory and CPU power to do all.
As I have already said, I consider all this "my computer boots before yours" total crap, something that a serious user should never even think for an architecture comparison. First of all, 'cos boot time depends on too many factors, and all over because in the real world (the one where normal people with normal attitudes live) it doesn't matter how many seconds you need to boot a system, but instead the time (hours, days, maybe months and years) that the same system can stay turned on, without a shutdown or a reboot (we call it "uptime"). Are our Amigas enough stable to outperform Windows, Linux or MacOS X uptimes? No, they aren't. So, just multiply Amiga short boottime for the times you need to reboot it, and you'll notice that PC and Macs make you loose less time, even if they need 2x or 3x or even 10x the time to boot an Amiga.
