Perhaps some think that “booting” a computer might involve kicking it out the door. At least “boosting” a computer suggests taking it from a suboptimal state to a more functional state.

Eggscellent. I was able to track down about 20 examples. I assume the error also happens with “boot/boost,” but this switch is harder to track down.
Here is someone complaining about naive computer users: “No, We do not REBOOST a computer, we reboot them.”
