Had a buy a salesperson a desktop to replace the one he has that has a bad HDD. I discovered he uses no storage on the thing and that buying a computer with 12 GB RAM and 256 GB SSD, was cheaper than 8 GB with any size HDD I could find at the store so we got that.

Now I'm jealous of his 10 seconds or less boot time while I have to struggle every morning waiting at least a full minute for my computer to get to login, and another one once I put in my password.

    Feel you mate, it's hard on a shitty laptop without sdd :(
    Just let me tell you the "use yarn or npm on a Windows laptop with less than 5.400 rpm HDD, okay I'll let the machine work till tomorrow"-story ...

    I had a computer with a three minute boot time, I just upgraded to an SSD with much better specs, and I can't get over the 5 second boot time.

    Why do you shut it down every night? Put it to sleep instead

    I know that feel. I used to have an HDD in my laptop for like 3 years - the boot time was ok thanks to Windows 10's fast boot but program losing GM times were ridiculous. Upgraded to an msata add now and it's like 5 sec for booting that machine

    @iakar I don't, but windows does it's own thing and reboots, other cleaning people un-plug shit.

    Thank God for auto-save and recover in sublime.
