As my buddy says everytime I mention any Windows product: ?^#^%# Windows.

Well, I'm sure you've noticed my spelling of Windoze. Spelled it that way since 3.0 and always will.

I can relate to the frustration the programmers and the members are experiencing. But in my case, being a geek, I especially relate with the programmers. I won't make light of the frustration felt by members, though. I feel it myself when I'm trying to do my job and the site doesn't respond. I've also been the cause of some of the harder crashes, by running IO-intensive jobs at peak times, which I don't do now.

My own setup (Windoze95 revB) was semi-reliable when it was on a Pentium 200MMX with 128 meg of RAM, only needing rebooting about once a week, but now that it's a 500mhz Pentium III with 256 meg of RAM, I have to reboot daily. In my case, too, the hardware is just fine.
