I'd say that too, but I'm getting email from 'smartd' daily basically telling me that my harddrive is going to die any day now. It's a work, laptop and was scheduled for replacement in February anyway, so they're just ordering early rather than replacing the drive. I'm hoping the drive will crap out completely the day I get my new laptop. :-)
LOL--I was actually referring to software issues. I get your point though. I'm in the same boat--my mainboard died, so I'm trying to save the cash for a replacement.
