actually laptops are worse - on mine laptop-mode doesnt detect when a
battery runs out - so everything goes black!

On one occasion I lost most of an ext3 file system, so I went back to
reiserfs and no more problems.  I have lost small areas of data with
reiserfs (nothing recent though - very stable), but on ext3 Ive lost
whole systems (desktops, and the laptop mentioned above).
