.....Get a mac. In 14 years I've only had a hard drive fail once.
Well, while I´m a staunch Mac addict (bought an iPhone 3G a few days ago...), hard drives are almost the only things that are NOT any better in Mac´s. They´re just the same ones as Microsloth boxes use, since they come from the same manufacturers.
One difference is that Mac discs don´t get fragmented the way Windoze ones do, and that MIGHT reduce mechanical wear to some extent. Also, the latest OS (Leopard) comes with an easy-to-use (I´d almost say "difficult-to-not-use"...) backup solution that probably will save you in case of a HD crash.
So, DO get a Mac, better yet, get several! But just not for this reason.....
