Well, ok. Do you print, do you burn CDs, do you transfer photos from your
camera? If you do, and on top of that in KDE (gasp!), you will have had
breakage in the last six months on several occasions.
I think what you are saying is that if your are very carefull (read lots of
lists), and if you don't use a desktop manager, *then* you won't have
breakage for years. Ok. I can accept that.
