Do you now have, or have you had, your WS networked? From the sound of other replies, it seems like you are using OS 8/9. If so, go into the System Folder and find a folder named Servers. Delete the accumulated servers in that folder and see if that speeds things up.
This occurs WELL BEFORE the OS starts to load. That's not the problem.
A pair of my Wallstreets suffer from the same problem. I suspect it does have to do with a dead PRAM battery.
In case people aren't understanding, this delay occurs AFTER the boot, but WELL BEFORE the ROM starts to boot the Mac. It could be corruption somewhere in NVRAM. I wonder if an OF reset-all would solve the problem?
