For sure windows needs more reboots than linux does, but does this qualify as a quality grade for an OS? I have my doubts...
this become quite OT... but if you are in the way of compiling a video film (6 hours work) and you want to install an utility that need reboot, you do what?

Well, although it is OT, I would probably save my work to disk, install the utility, reboot, reload my work and continue with my freshly installed utility. Admitteldly I never compiled a video, never do any work without regularly saving the status to disk, and never do system administration while I have valuable things that I do not want to destroy in front of me ;-)) Now, if you worked in X, then did some work on the text terminal (ctrl-alt-F2), then you returned and found your X to be so garbled that you cannot see anything, not to mention saving your valuable work, you do what?
