>3. Linux startup times ( Fresh Ubuntu install on my laptop takes 2 minutes + to load whereas a fresh Windows Install takes 45 seconds ).

Wait a seccond!!!

When you fresh install Ubuntu, you are done, you have most of the drivers, you have office, you have image editing software and all that

When you fresh install Windows, you dont have nothing, you can even connect to internet or you will get tones of viruz, after half day or more for:

Install Grahics driver
Install Sound Driver
Install Printer Driver
Install any other Drivers
( do a bunch of reboots )
Install office ( if is MSOffice it will takes lots more time than if its OOo )
Install some program for image editing
Install Antiviruz
Install Firewall

Now reboot your computer and tell-me....

Dont it takes LOTS of more time to boot? i BET it does!!!
