I'm still dubious of ext3.

My wife, god bless her, has a habit of just turning the computer off. With
ext2 it just saw an unclean system and sorted itself out. When Mandrake
started using ext3, the first Three times she did this, it wiped out the
system out and I couldn't recover it.

Is ext3 any better these days ???

Opinions please.
