One thing that bugs me about bare metal servers. So much money is spent to buy something beefy and powerful, and to run a lightweight efficient OS, and yet they all take like 10 minutes or worse to cold boot where a $500 laptop cold boots in under a minute.
I know *why* (RAID, PXE, etc.), but that doesn't mean the situation itself isn't ridiculous.
