you saved a few seconds of my day.
a user should wait  nearly 1 minute for the ready desktop?
and this is a step forward?


i prefer to wait  90 sec for login screen and  20 sec for desktop on my

Mac OS X
00 sec  -  boot
30 sec  -  login screen
20 sec  -  desktop ready
______
50 sec  -  vs  24 hours
