Finally! The wait may be finally over

    Many people fret over the fact that their computer starts in over three minutes. People seem not to have very good attention spans. But it may soon be all over; many companies are investing in computers that will start in 30 seconds or less.
     HP, Lenovo, Dell, and the circuit board company, Asus, all have on their agenda to decrease the start times of their products in the coming year. As of now, only 35 percent of computers running the latest OS of Windows, Vista, have a boot time of under 30 seconds.
     Hewlett-Packard has recently begun selling computers that boot in about 30-45 seconds(For a nice little $1,200), but the chief technology officer of HP says that in about 18 months the average start time should be around 20-30 seconds. Technology increases every single day and we never know what is going to come out next.
