It's the same PC dude.

There are different icons on the desktop when it's booted. Even installing a driver for a USB peripheral could change the boot time.

NVM... the left edge of one is covered up.

My comment stands. I can live without that extra fraction of a second delay in the GUI boot. :)

No their aren't.. Just the left of the right screen has been cropped off a bit.

Indeed! It was my first attempt at split screen. Not perfect but it worked.

I guess the short answer from both testing at home, and these videos is that there is no real difference. Boot times vary wildly anyway depending on what software is installed / removed / updated, performed maintenance, large amounts of data change etc

So, in summary, if your hobby is restarting your Windows 7 machine as many times as possible over the course of a day you might get an extra one in if you turn off the boot logo image.

How does this really help people though? :laugh:

Because it's fun to be a dick.

Also, this is of near zero value.

    • No, it doesn't, but I'm sure you don't just mean compile when you say compile.
    • Wine is a translation layer, not an emulator. And there are many cases where performance is worse or BETTER under Proton, it really depends on the game in question.

    • Give me an example of Microsoft "don't like something from you" so "you simply get locked down"? I am all for government using Linux and open source software but no need to make stuff up.
