• Easy peasy, max out ram and chuck an SSD in...

    The same goes for a Win based laptop.... probably more so than Mac

    6GB and HDD must have taken +2 minutes and the egg timer was still popping up from the delayed startup programs, so its not exactly usable.
    8GB SSD booted, logged in and ready in 25 seconds or less.
    Was slightly quicker with Ubuntu, but the speed benefit wasn't worth having 2 OS for me.

  • well this is sweet; Mac fanbois, Linux jihadis, Windows mavens come together with mutual love and respect. All it needed was insanely fast boot times. God bless the solid state disk upgrade.

    [here: early 2011 MBP 17" with max'd RAM and SSD]
