My experience is that the people who have problems with Windows are the
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.

So? I've been using RISC OS and Linux all day and neither of them have
BSODded, died horribly or crashed.
And ISTR my ISP has a Solaris server that's been up 24/7 for over six
months...
Later.
