Richard,
I think the point that Gavin was trying to make is that a sensible
business would commit their valuable data back to a fileserver running on
solid hardware with a solid operating system rather than relying on their
single-spindle laptops to store their valuable content - not making any
statement on the actual desktop platform.
For example, I use a mixture of Windows, MacOS, Solaris and OpenBSD around
here, but all the valuable data is stored on a zpool located on a SPARC
server (obviously with ECC RAM) with UPS power. With Windows around, I
like the fact that I don't need to think twice before reinstalling those
machines.
Andre.
