    Well, as a user of Windows from the very beginning, I can say that I have never had too many problems with it. Sure, one or two minor inconveniences, but not once- hang on, the jammin' part of echoes is coming up...

    Okay, as I was saying, I have never once encountered the fabled "Blue Screen of Death". In fact, I think that the Apple people just made it up to scare people away from Windows.

    Listen up, Zorba, my last job was all about supervising 24 people on three continents, and all they were using was Microsoft equipment. You don't believe in the blue screen of death? Get serious about Microsoft Office. Do more curising with IE. Really beat on the features, and trust me, this fabled Yeti known as BSOD will visit you. When you least expect it. Probably right before you save your one copy of that really important document.

    Mac lovers have committed all sorts of sins, but don't blame the BSOD on them. That's all Microsoft.

    Zorba, trust me it's not a myth.. Gear up back to Win98 and see yourself after 2-3 months.

    For browsers -as I stated in a topic in Watchtower- have a look at Maxthon browser.. A browser can't be better to me.

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    XP (according to Bill Gates) would never get the dreaded BSoD. Wrong. About 7-8 months ago, when i first experienced computer trouble with XP, i got two BSoD's in a week!

    Arggh. The blue screen, the thing that has ruined many a day. My nightmares are back.

    I don`t think I`ve ever had it in XP. Hooray.

    Not really....

    I used NT(half a year), 95(2 years) and the most, 98(3 years)

    So, I'm an all around Windows user. I'm using XP since 2003.

    Heh, then you know what BSOD is. And I just saw that you had a definition of what BSOD is
