So what. The PC I am writing this on has not crashed
since I installed Windows 2000 on it .. except for
twice, when a floppy disk drive created a (oscilloscope verified)
permanently stuck "all lines low". When the floppy drive was
removed, all was well. Nothing is immune to a total hardware
failure, except perhaps a triple-redundant system. And this is
with absolutely no obsessive behaviour at all. It ran happily
for five months without rebooting.
