You meant this the other way around, didn't you? I have to spend several
frustrating minutes each week "stroking" Win98 to keep it alive (i.e.
rebooting after a recurring crash) whereas my Linux server just keeps
humming the background, providing my web server, telnet server, e-mail
server, file server, and firewall. All I do on my Win98 box is surf the
web, listen to Napster, and type documents, and it can't even handle THAT
without tripping over itself.
Windows is like a retarded child.
