Or just set your BIOS to take you to the boot menu on startup so you don't have to pound keys like a barbarian.
Nah, you just need to develop a custom EFI app to boot on it. This app then calls a server on your network which will answer whether to boot on Linux or Windows (or any OS installed really).
And voilà, you don't need to manually select the OS anymore (well, you still need to say to the server what to use, but you can do it beforehand, not during the boot)
Or maybe I share a computer with my partner that absolutely does not want to see a boot menu when they turn on the computer.
