Is the startup delay from power on to click activity or time to accept the power
on command (furiously hitting the power up key) ?

If it's the first, I'd re-install software, de-frag my hard drive, re-build the
desktop, and clean out my extensions folder of old stuff.

If it's the second, replace the battery ($10 at Radio Shack).
