So you think ya know what Tiger does at boot, eh?
Extra extra! Learn all about it!
/usr/libexec/WaitingForLoginWindow
Run this via ARD or SSH to your Mac desktops and freak out the users!

While booting, Tiger no longer displays a series of vaguely-informative status messages describing which subsystems are launching. All you see during the Tiger boot sequence: the gray Apple logo screen, then the spinner under the Apple logo, then a progress bar with the text, ?Starting Mac OS X?. Next up is the Login panel.
You will need to run the killall command to end the "booting"

Pretty amazing.
But I can't really understand if it gets to the desktop quicker and then waits for the other processes to start (like Windows) or if it actually has been doubled.
