Boot times don't matter much to me any more. With the exception of
my work laptop, the home machines simply spend most of their time
sleeping. They resume from sleep far faster than they can boot. I
only reboot when forced to by updates or if something acts strangely,
which on a modern machine isn't often.

Same here ... my laptop sleeps then hibernates. Booting from hibernate is very fast (relatively speaking).
