Having owned about 11 Dell laptops over the past 10 years, I have found they are conservative on most of their unit's max memory specs. I have 8GB and no page file, but 16GB is quite a bit for a laptop unless one intends on running a 12GB ramdrive; less than that and performance gains show null.

IMHO, 1 minute is long for an EVO. My son's EVO is about 8-12 to login and 3 seconds to full functionality. I find that enabling the "Rapid" mode in Samsung Magician no faster loading. Of course, he is only 6 and uses his for gaming only, unbloated.
FWIW, I personally run a Toshiba SSD on a unmodded A08 Bios (Sata II) with about 20-25 seconds tops with 94 processes.
Is there anyway to disable Optimus?

GPU-Z can show which GPU has a load implemented. To use only the discrete video entirely; in the Nvidia control panel, global settings, select "High-performance Nvidia processor, then apply.
