Not enough to tip the balance over to Workbench. In fact, I haven't seen my XP install crash, except when the HW was malfunctioning. Windows is remarkably stable these days.
Agreed. I've found Windows to be very stable indeed if you treat it right. Most 'windows' crashes are just marginal hardware or buggy drivers.
To anyone who thinks Windows is unstable I'll pose these questions: how often have you gone to an ATM to draw out money? So many times you can't give a number? Same for most of us. Now, when was the last time you walked up to one and found it had crashed?
I've seen
one crashed ATM in the past 5 years.
Guess what OS most of them are running? It begins with 'W' and ends with 's'...
