Don't give me that crap. I've been using personal computers since CP/M 2.2,
and whel you may have been doing it longer, I think that's damn well long
enough for me to recognize trends.
Yes, "normal" people have Windows problems now and again also. MY experience
shows that people who have the most problem are those that seem to be already
biased against Windows/MS, and are looking for problems.
You don't like my theory, too bad. To quote yourself: "YOU ARE AN ASS."

My experience is that the people who have

people who *want* to have problems with Windows. I have several Win2K
boxen here whose only reason for being rebooted every few months is
robbing harddrives or CD drives. I also have Linux boxen here, one that
currently has an uptime of 187 days. No major record, but it got a new
60GB HD back then.
I use Windows pretty hard, with a fairly constant set of software
(mapping, CAD software, IE, ProComm, CD ripping, a few other things), and
I don't get BSODs or crashes.
Perhaps this person should switch an an OS more suited to their
expectations. Like pencil and paper.
Congratulations.
YOU haven't had a problem, so you deny that any such problems exist.
