I think if you're about to take a trip, waiting the whole 17 seconds
for the OS to boot (Windows) won't hurt too much.


That is all very well when you are sitting in the coffee shop playing
with
your laptop.

17 seconds without instruments on an instrument approach in solid IMC
and it
will hurt a lot, but not for long.

Don't turn PC off during flight.

I've got a great idea for you, Le Chaud.

Especially since the odds are that your plane of reality is in a different
state than mine and certainly hundreds of miles away: I think that you
should develope and test this whole concept, including the fly by wire
(a/k/a drive by wire) in your car. It should be pretty safe, not much new
to learn and you're already on the ground...
