That's a bit of an overstatement, though I'd say it happens less when
you know what you're about.

Very true.

Now that I'd have to disagree with, Windows, Internet Explorer and
Office do crash, though admittedly less than they used to (providing you
don't use any of them in a new version before service pack 2)

Then you need to get out more, there are ALOT of programs out there more
stable than MS products. IPCOP and qmail for two quick examples.

I'm willing to grant them the featurism crown, but I don't necessarily
consider that a compliment. I feel they have way to much tendency to
try and integrate everything trying to improve useability at the cost of
security and stability.
