Linux vs Windows 7 brief speed test

N's Lenovo B640 laptop had become old and slow. Tried dual booting with Linux Mint, found quite an improvement. 

Time taken for Windows 7 to boot, open firefox and open youtube.com - 3:30 minutes.

Time taken for Linux to boot, open firefox and open youtube.com - 1:15 minutes.

Similarly, Windows takes 40 seconds to shut down, while Linux shuts down in less than ten seconds.
