I understand that processing power was lacking but surely the os of yore must have had much smaller requirements. Also let’s assume we are booting up offline and no updates are indicated. What was Windows doing for 3 – 5 minutes that my android phone manages to zip through in 15 seconds?

Processing power wasn’t that much of a bottleneck, storage was the main culprit, spinning drives are slow, that’s why you can take pretty much any decade old system put a ssd on it and suddenly it’s way better not only at boot but in general responsiveness
