    File corruption will be a thing of the past.

    Oh? So ReiserFS will join the heights of not-fucking-up to which ext2, ext3, xfs, jfs, fat32, and ntfs4 rose to two years ago. I could almost hope for it. ReiserFS is pretty good for /var/ and /tmp/. It's a real shitter for /usr/ and /home/.

    File corruption has been a thing of the past, unless you used ReiserFS.

    Lindows.com is paying for part of it.

    Reiser? Is that you?
