I finally got my Windows 7 RC downloaded, and installed it today. My total installation time is 25:38.

The breakdown is as follows:

15:54 - First Restart
21:17 - Second Restart
23:19 - User Input (User name, Computername, etc)
25:38 - First Login to Desktop

There is a margin of error of let's say 2 minutes to cover all user input, such as selecting the advanced install options, removing partitions, and all other input such as Usernames and Passwords, Product Key, etc.

When the error margin is factored in, that leaves an install time of 23:38, which beats the Build 7000 install time of also about 25 minutes...
