save time on startup in Fedora

Turning off network service can save some time in startup process in Fedora especially laptops.

How-to:
1. go to System -> Administration -> Services
2. turn off 'Network' service on all run levels.
3. DONE.

Next time when you boot up, you will notice the system stop checking network devices like eth0, wlan01 . . . This is good for laptops which frequently check network access points.
