That's correct. 5 seconds is probably good. The CD starts quite quickly 
and then there is a 30 second break during which you must press F5 or it 
just boots 'normally' without speech.

btw -- we've had a lot of feedback on this point and will test a 
starting sound in the next version that beeps when you should press a key.
