Now if only they also made a laptop with ECC RAM.

I'd gladly pay 1k more to have a stable system.

It's your system really that unstable?

If so, are you sure it's the RAM?

Systems without ECC do crash, have transient "weird issues" and corrupt data significantly more.

If stability matters to you, you should really demand ECC for any system you purchase. It's the best bang for buck to that end.
