Make Your Mac Start Faster With Speed Startup From Casady & Greene
The good people at Casady & Greene have released a new product guaranteed to make many Mac users happy. Speed Startup speeds up the startup process by doing a little voodoo behind the scenes. The product was written by the same developer that wrote Conflict Catcher, the indispensable extension manager. According to Casady & Greene:

Start up you Mac in record time with Speed Startup from Casady & Greene. Do you hate the time you waste while your computer starts up? Then you must get Speed Startup written by Jeffrey Robin author of the award winning Conflict Catcher 8 and published by Casady & Greene! You don't have to learn or configure anything; just install Speed Startup, and you'll get immediate control of your Mac.

Speed Startup Accelerates the startup process by intelligently pre loading the information needed during startup, and the windows will open snappier by speeding up the Finder's zoom animation. We all know that PowerBooks in particular take their own sweet time during startup. Now with Speed Startup that time has been reduced significantly! We have seen a savings of over 45 seconds (192mb RAM) on a PowerBook G3/300!

Did you know that you will spend 90 hours of your life doing nothing but starting up your machine? With Speed Startup you can eliminate all that wasted time.

The product is priced at US$19.95 and can be downloaded from a special web site set up for Speed Startup.
