"Kiss the BSOD Goodbye"
by Kian on Thu 14th Oct 2004 16:05 UTC

My father bought this book and burst out laughing when after a few minutes using the customised Knoppix supplied with it it had a kernel panic :-)

It was overall far, far less stable than XP. Hence he's still using XP, albeit with OO.o and Firefox, which he picked up from Linux

Still, its somewhat false advertising. Linux may not BSOD but it sure as hell can crash fatally.
