   To pick a fight with Glen is a pretty good way to have yourself labeled   
   as a troll. As someone who has been on Usenet for something like 12   
   years and have read quite a few of his posts...he's a pretty   
   knowledgeable and respected person.   
      
   Note: I, personally am a Linux user and am in no way sticking up for him   
   because he is one of my good, "Microsoft pals". I am just someone who   
   has made a few observations.

   That is a poor observation as there is a 100% chance that the entire   
   drive will fail at some point.   
      
   No harm in having a backup on a separate partition   
   but I always tell my clients to be sure to back up all important data   
   on a minimum of two totally independent hard drives.   
      
      
   Finally there is absolutely nothing wrong about disagreeing with   
   what someone's posts...and I am sure Glen (and all here) welcome   
   differing opinions. As long as the format of your argument is construed   
   in a logical and congenial manner your opinions are completely welcome.   
      
   However as soon as insults are hurled...the debate is lost...   
   no matter how good the logic may hold up otherwise.
