Because Microsoft pre-load it on Windows when you start your computer. (I think that this can be disabled). Most Linux systems d o not yet pre-load, but some do : OpenSuSE being one. If you run one which does you will find the loading time for OOo down to a few seconds ( depending on what else your system is doing).
