But really, this is the case with ANY version of Linux, and in fact with any
operating system -- that's why everyone should always have backups of
important data. You can pay someone a little money for a nice feeling, but
that won't help too much in an actual emergency. You'll have to pay someone
a _lot_ of money if you want actual consultants to show up and solve your
problems for you.
