All this talk about BSOD's has me terrified, wondering when it is going 
to happen to me.  I'm an old (OLD!) *nix user from 1984, Windows-free 
since 1996.  And Macromedia's tools have forced me to start living the 
dual-boot dream in order to quickly create layouts, templates and Flash.

But I tell you something - this thing NEVER crashes.  Really, and I am 
the last person to figure out how to manage an XP box.  I download 
patches (some of them, at least!) and that's about it.  Then again, no 
Kazaa, no video games, no fun...  Maybe I'm on to something here.

My only complaint is the lousy driver support for my el'cheapo AC97 
onboard sound, which consequently sounds GREAT through ALSA.  :(
