Win 7 -- (un)reliable

I just had Windows Explorer crash and restart. A few days ago I got the first blue screen I've seen in months. Fun!

And oddly enough...despite my dislike of Vista, I have never seen a BSOD in 1.5+ years...

I had maybe three or four with Vista when this machine was first new.

And the only time they happened was during wakeup from sleep. They stopped happening when I stopped leaving Agent running when I put the machine to sleep.

4 I've been running win7 since it was first available, and I've had maybe 4 blue-screens total, not counting a bunch caused by a failing video card when I was first installing.  That's far superior to what I would get from XP in a similar period of time.  I've never run Vista for that long to compare, but I suspect Win7 and Vista to be in the same ballpark.
