It depends on what Operating System (The thing that makes your computer work) you have installed. If you have Windows XP then on a new install it should take at most a minute, vista should take at most 2 minutes with a clean install, windows 7 takes about 30-45 seconds on a clean install. If you have Ubuntu 9.10 then it takes about 15-20 seconds. If you are using a mac it should boot up within 15 seconds

The CPU speed, RAM speed and number start-up programs all play a part in determining how quickly the computer is prepared and ready for you to use. The more programs you want loading into RAM at start-up - the longer the machine will take to be ready.
