B/Ray players, do they all boot up slow?

We have a Sony Blue Ray player that takes a really long time to start/boot up. I think an old IBM XT would boot up faster. It is really annoying to my wife, ok me too...
Do they all take quite a while? I do not know the model off hand, it is one we purchased from Costco when we purchased our LCD TV. I could probably talk her into a new model as long as the start up was considerably reduced.
Maybe Oppo BDP83 or 83SE.
Thanks, John

Ditto on the Oppo! I love mine. If you are into two channel audio as well check out the Special Edition version.

My JVC XV-BP1 loads and plays lickity split. DVD upscaling is excellent. On the AVSForum many refer to it as "the poor man's Oppo".
