Like I said in my message: "I never lost a single byte of info after crashes since 1993 and four macs... "

There is no places there where I imply that my macs never crashed. Just that i never lost any data after a crash. The better contraol Apple has by developping both side of the widget (hardware and os) help them tremendously in reaching a level of crashing (and the damage it can create) to a very low level.

A luxury Micro$oft do not have. The reverse engineering needed to copy this and that from loading roms to board design makes it hard to create an os that will be as stable.

Cheers mate
