Is it me, or when steve uses the iMac in MWSF keynote hes a little decieving?? On several websites ive read 'programs opened almost instantly when steve clicked on the icon'. Is it me or did he have the open, just a closed window?? i couldnt see the black arrow, but theres no way that they opened that quickly. Surely
 
If the programs were loaded in memory beforehand, then yeah, programs can open nearly instantaneously. Programs on my G5 do. 1 or 2 seconds and, BOOM, open.
Here's to the Crazy Ones
 
I suspect that all the apps have been opened before during that log-in session, so that they're all in inactive memory which means they should load quicker than from scratch. I'd also guess that those iMacs are fully loaded with RAM
