Apparently the reason my computer has been taking 2 minutes to boot was a faulty network mount
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Anyone know about a Windows equivalent for my work laptop?
You can use the Windows Performance Recorder to capture the boot time and then use Windows Performance Analyzer to view the results. It should also be able to show the results as a timeline.
Sysinternals Process Monitor can do boot logging.
