I couldn't agree more.  I've been using AFS for about 6 months now,
and I haven't had any problems with it at all.  I use it on both my
HD's (see .sig) on which I have 4 partitions.  I used the ffs2afs
utility to update the partitions, and that worked perfectly first
time.  Before I changed to AFS I was having frequent disk-validation
problems with FFS.

Can people please stop slagging off a perfectly good file-system.
