Is everyone with crashing problems running systems that were OEM installed with all the added crap?

I just can't understand, I can count at least 6 Windows 7 machines in the office plus the few I have, and not a single one of them has had a crashing issue. (We have had a couple of software hangs, but that's the app, happens in XP and Vista just as often)

The one I'm on right now has been running 33 days since I rebooted for an update.
It's currently got the following open:
2 Outlook windows
5 Network folders
10 IE windows
3 MSN messenger windows
5 Notepad docs
5 Excel docs
SqueezePlay Beta SqueezeOS player
5 Remote desktop sessions
AD Users and Computers
2 Command prompt windows (one doing a network file copy)
Task manager
Calculator
Besides whatever is in the tray...

I'm just trying to figure out where the issues are coming from, I just haven't seen them.

Maybe it has something to do with all of these machines are Business or Ultimate vs. Home/Home Premium?

Maybe the 64bit IE thing being default is a Home Premium thing too? I just looked at two other computers of users that never change things and the default taskbar IE opens 32bit.

Weird.
