I cannot comment on the startup times, since I reboot only after a 
software update that requires one. I've got a very lazy powerbook, 
since it's almost always sleeping (up to 15 hours a day, or even during 
the whole weekend ;-)

Starting from sleep is as fast as booting my C= 64.
At work I have a Windows NT 4 machine that's always on. I just lock the 
screen when I leave the room, so the startup time on that machine is 
also a none issue for me.

I really can recommend the sleep mode of your Mac.

HTH,
Arjan
