I recently installed mandrake 8.1 and the install went over without a hitch. But now I begin to notice problems similar to windows. First Konquerer would crash on me for no apparent reason. Second I crashed the OS twice in one day, just by trying to fix the system clock. Finally after the computer was on for three days straight, the modem just stopped working. I had to reboot to get it to work again. Gee this seems a lot like windows 98. Maybe before you linux lovers praise linux, you should warn others that it has problems too.
