Both my iPhone 5 and MacBook Air restart in seconds. My older MacBook Pro takes a while though but is still at least half as long as my work Ubuntu machine.
My Macbook pro is going to be 3 years old in May, and my iPhone 4 is Verizon bought last Feb. Not sure if they have solid state drives, but when I don't restart for several months, they take a longass time to reboot
and even if they aren't ssd, that shouldn't cause them to take this long to restart, my macbook when I just restarted it 10 minutes ago took a good 10 minutes to boot up, and I don't even have that many programs installed on it
