At least they don't have code that says

if (software = "Netsape" || "Non-MS") {
coredump()
}

What? Are you trying to look stupid and ruin any chance of being taken seriously? You're doing a fine job.

I was on HP Unix for 8 years. I could go for months without
having to reboot. I once had an uptime of 220 days, and then
it was because of an UPS outage.

So go get a machine for $2000 and run HP Unix. Oh yeah.. you can't.

I'm now on an Dell 200 pro running NT, and I have to reboot
every other day. It is slower than my 150p running W95.

If this is true, you have a setup problem. I'd be willing to help you with that. Also, slower at what?

So you must write great quality software. I bet you don't have
a computer science degree.

I do have a computer science degree. Sorry. But I wouldn't say I write great quality software. Very few people do. Some work at Microsoft. Most don't.
