I develop Java apps on these boxes 50 hours a week and have not seen the BSOD since Windoz 98. Win2K, NT4, and XP-Pro are very stable. Avoid crap 3rd party software and periphials and be realistic with the amount of open apps you have. Every OS has it's flaws it's just that MS is the target of choice for the malcontents in the world due to it's majority user base. You like/love/worship Mac or a Unix flavor, great, use it and move on with life.

Back on topic, there is no excuse for what happened at the presentation. I think it was the demo PM and his team that got the deep six, not the developers.
