And I have dozens of tea saucers with a hole in the middle, of the 4700
series :-p
Seriosly, what I mean is that all filesystems types can fail. Just because
we were bitten doesn't mean that particular type is worse than the other.
Reiserfs is very sofisticated and innovative, and it's problems can be
comparatively "innovative". I use it in the partitions where I have source
code and compilations, for instance. My home is xfs, my root is ext3. I
would use reiser for a maildir partition.
