    I think it depends on the Specification Buddy and software that has been installed. Or Probably, Your friend have too many Plug-in on its Laptop? but 3 minutes???...that's cool. Lol too...,Oops...I got 10 seconds on average...

    When do I shutdown my computer? Almost never. Last time, it took about 5 to 10 seconds to get my Mac under.

    1-3 minutes I think, but most of the time I put it on sleep mode, is more useful.

    before formatting my computer it used to take 1 minute at least. But now It takes only 10 seconds. I just removed all unnecessary programs from my computer and it worked for me in increasing the speed of my PC.
