It takes about 5 seconds for our Ipad to be useful.
Unlike the HP, the Ipad is fast & dependable, it doesn't lock up mysteriously as the HP does. The Ipad, apparently, doesn't have thousands of folders, files, & programs on it that are a complete mystery to me. Programs that are made for the Ipad don't have driver & compatibility issues. I don't worry about graphics card issues, viruses, & hackers (maybe I should). If Apple software was a bit more intuitive it would be near perfect.
FYI, I have been a Windows fan for decades, but that is quickly changing. I need a new laptop yet I can't quite justify another Windows machine.
Seven minutes?
You have something seriously wrong, friend. Take it in somewhere to be serviced and have the crap removed that’s loading on startup
