He's not the only one who has had little to no problem with Windows.
Even when I ran Windows 95 I kept wondering why people kept going on
about the "blue screen of death" because I almost never saw it.  I've
been running Window 98SE for years and up until recently I've been
leaving it running for weeks at a time without worries.  The only
reason I'm not doing so now if that my hard drive or hard drive
controller is doing some weird stuff after the machine has been idle
for a while.

I'm still much happier using my IIgs, though.  It may not be as stable
as I like to think it is but it is quick to restart and is easy to
deal with.  :)

Funny, I've been in chat many times with people using Macs that have
disappeared from chat only to come back to say that their Mac crashed
or locked up on them.  :)
