Told you, your computer sucks.
Mac Mini - 45 Seconds
Windows 7 - 20 Seconds
Windows XP - 55 Seconds
That's with my anti virus turned off for both my mac and my pc.
You can only make these comparisons on the exact same hardware.

Why is everyone so worried about boot times anyway? They mean nothing... I only reboot my computer one a month anyway...And so what if I lose 30 seconsif I had that much time anyway...

Boot times may be critical if you have servers running or something
...But that's highly unlikely that you'd have an important server running on you home PC.
No, it's not important to have, but it's nice to be able to restart your computer and be back at the desktop in under 30 seconds
Boot times are totally not important on servers. My dell poweredge server spends atleast 1-2minutes in the BIOS powering up and checking individual components. Takes about another minute to load the VMWare ESXi kernel and it has a staggered startup of the VMs on the system. So in total for the last machine in the VM startup queue it can take anywhere from around 6-8 minutes before it finally starts. Specalist servers involving large disributed raid arrays and sever clusters can take significantly longer before they are brought online. Although, currently my physical server has a uptime of over 120 days, which is quite low for a server.
Anyway, my desktop:

Okay, Ill boot XP vs. OS X on my MacBook.
I'll hold ALT so the timer starts from when I press enter to select a boot device and will stop as soon as the desktop is fully loaded.
XP SP3: 55.1 Seconds
Mac OSX 10.5.7: 38.7 Seconds.
