Bruce,
I absolutely agree about the reliability factor.
When one is working in an office environment the thing which makes the
paycheck grow is productivity, independence and consistency.

It's nice, sure, but is it as essential as reliability? Is it as
important 
as the program behaving as it should so your productivity isn't
decreased? 
I don't think any of the features aren't "nice" ... but when it comes to

prioritizing, should "stable" not come before "nice"?
