I will date myself. These machines had a lot of memory as well which added to the slow reboot. I think it was 16 gigs.

The r series for IBM took forever. The p series was faster but was still slow

I had a friend with one of those while I had an Atari. The Atari game would come up within a minute, but the tape took like 15 min to start.
