I don't have a Linux system of my own (yet), so I use NTW4.0 five days a week.
Frankly, I haven't had
a "blue screen of death" in over a month now, and this is typical. Of course, I
turn it off at the end of
each day - for security, and after all, we all know it won't run for a full week
without crashing, so why
bang my head on a brick wall?
Curiously, what seems to bring the crashes on most reliably is anything
involving the diskette drive -
especially diskcopy.
Others may get different mileage.
