Interesting. Re stability, people bitched Windows 95 a lot, but I only encountered serious issues when 98 came out. XP was very stable... but don't get me started on Windows ME.
Adding new features gives you a lot of fame. Fixing bugs and improving things does not.
MS Office is complex, full of bugs... but it has all the things in place that a power user needs. They gave a big though about the things people need. The CTRL+Y after a CTRL+X on excel is a great example of that.
I have a love/hate relationship with MS Office. I would lave to have something better... but we're still far away.
You can get some versions of Linux that are pretty stable with the right hardware, but the lack of MS Office is a total bummer.
PS: First person to say that one can run MS Office using Wine, will get nailed to a tree.
And agree with the author. X11 has aging issues.
In 2008 Rails had a great hype on the fat server era. We're on the fat client now, with JS taking the lead. Give it another 5 years and something else will pop-up.
