I never wait for a computer to boot by staring at it unless I'm fixing a problem with the boot process. I wander off and come back later.
When I'm on the move I'll power up a PC without sitting down and come back to it later, but never "wander off" if I'm already sitting there since it only takes about 20 seconds to cold boot, 5 seconds of which is intentional delay in case I want to choose something other than my default OS from the bootmenu.
I say it is really nice not to have any problems with the boot process myself.
