Yeah, only took me reading two of his posts to gather that he's something of a whiner. I mean, anyone who's been around awhile knows that win9x and ME were pathetic for stability. XP is a bit better, but not perfect by any stretch. The problem isn't so much Windows itself, but rather how it handles applications, drivers and fault recovery.

That aside, for all the Windows supporters that want to argue such as Watchdog, setup two identical systems, one running off your choice of Win32, and one running FreeBSD, and configure them to get equal usage, similar tasks, etc, and for uptime the fbsd box will win out every time. For those that whine, "What's the big deal about uptime"; uptime is a direct indication of stability of the OS, plain and simple, no two ways about it.
