I have a FREE os on all my computers.  It can stay up longer than any M$ os I&#8217;ve ever ran with fewer problems.  It&#8217;s gone days even months without a reboot.  If it didn&#8217;t work it was because the hardware &#8211; motherboard &#8211; in one case was bad.  Not a big deal because it was a backup computer.  When I install a new driver, I don&#8217;t have to reboot.  Whenever I install a new driver in a M$ crapos I have to reboot at the minimum of 2 times.  So I&#8217;m not one of these people who believes price = quality.<\/p>\n<p>However in the area of the ilo DVDR05 MU you would be ahead right now burning your money.
