Then again, in
the 20+ years of using Unix & Unix-like systems, the same
thing holds true. :)
I've seen kernel panics on Linux, but only a /looooooong/ time ago -
Red Hat 4.2 on SPARC, I think. I've seen the kernel "oops" recently,
but it kept running & there was no data loss.
I've seen Mac OS X kernel panic lots of times, from 10.0 to 10.5. (I
don't have any MacIntel kit so I can't run anything later.)
I've seen my iPhone (3GS, iOS 5.1.1) freeze and spontaneously reboot.
So, yeah, Unix isn't immune, either.
