I am behind u 100%. The only computers that have long uptimes are ones with operators that know wtf they are doing. If a computer is contantly crashing, or f****'n up, its your fault--not the os. I completly argue with people whom say "I run linux because its more stable and have a longer uptime" Thats the biggest load of crap. If you dont have an uptime, or cant get an uptime of over a month, you may consier taking a computer course and learn how to properly operate a computer.
Dont get me wrong, "funky stuff" does happen, but very rarely. If something messes up, its almost always the programs you're running, not the OS.
