Default Re: Warning! Do NOT apply XP SP 3!

No, Linux isn't perfect. It is, however, considerably more stable than any MS box I've worked with. Software can't really deal with a hard disk crash - you pretty much need some amount of hardware redundancy to deal with that. Hard disk crashes are inevitable - they're physical devices that wear out. Back up all important data and settings, keep an OS disk on hand, and you're set.
