Anybody's machine working most of time?

Does anyone's machine just work all the time? My Tivo never crashed, hung
up, or failed to record anything - and I'm always fighting with my new MCE.
It's super cool when it works - but it seems every day it's slowly getting a
bit worse. Last night while watching a DVD, the hard drive light went nuts
and the DVD started playing choppy and freezing. It checked everything I
could think of.

I have a new Gateway - should I have bought something else - or do most of
you have issues too?
