Well, Charlotte, considering that it takes a good few minutes to boot the PC how would they even know what the boot-up process is doing. There is all sorts of stuff being loaded "under the hood", most of which few of us even know abut. My app is just part of this. Without my app on their desktop they would be lost. We are totally IT bound these days and if the app went down, they would be left with email and discussions on last night's TV. They have to wait and that is the end of it, regardless of where they are or who they are. My app has loaded before the other stuff even hits their eyes (Outlook, IE, etc). It is all part and parcel of "preparing their pc for their day's work" It is not optional and is also very essential. The only time they may be aware of it is if they have to bring over a version during the daytime and then, hey they have to wait 10-15 seconds. It takes longer than that to load Outlook and even longer to load IE/Firefox etc. Anyway, ymmv as we have often said.

Out users start clicking and complaining after a couple of seconds. Training them when "them" are clients all over the world isn't an option.

It takes at least 5 minutes for them to get their coffee, check their mobiles for text messages, put lipstick on, have a wee, have a poo-doo and everything else they do in the morning before they even contemplate work...15 seconds - I could take 15 minutes and nobody would bat an eye.
