Name me one piece of software that is totally bug-free. H*ck, IBM's
JFS ate my data on OS/2 one day, on a "stable" piece of software.
Thanks to still-undiscovered APAR ...

http://comp.os.os2.bugs.narkive.com/ypcAmVsk/xr-c005-is-out
APAR=PJ29386 JFS_WRITE CAUSES TRAP 0003 DURING A DIRECTORY WRITE
APAR=PJ29609 EXCEPTION IN MODULE JFS - TRAP 0003 IN ***@4
ALSO FIXES SEVERAL HANG PROBLEMS
APAR=PJ29664 TRAP IN JFS FS32_OPENCREATE WHEN OPENING A FILE WITH
FILENAME THAT CONTAINS A WILDCARD.

JFS had its own share of issues on AIX, too

That's what FUD is about, anyway. Repeat gossip in order to stop more
people to install a given piece of software, which in turn would have
helped to identify potential bugs and have them fixed faster. Aka "the
self-fulfilling prophecy".

But hey, Google must be full of dumb people...

Anyway... I've been told repeatedly that btrfs causes cpu overheating,
exhausts batteries and kills puppies.
