Mine's about that, only about 5 seconds slower on start-up.  My shutdown from login to power off is similar to yours (haven't timed it recently)

XP Pro, 240 MB of RAM, 2.4Ghz, 40 GB with 16 GB free (on a laptop)

Intel Celeron 2.00 GHz
768 MB DDR Ram
Windows XP Pro

I cba to time it but startup takes about 2 minutes.  I usually hibernate rather than shut down though, so my actual startup time is more in the region of 20 seconds.
