Startup time is very important if you're like me where you always have at least 5 browser Windows open and constantly opening/ closing them. It can really slow you down if you have to wait for the browser to come up each time you want a new window. In Windows, MSIE comes up in 2-3 seconds and Opera in 4-5. - Bart
