More Rice Pudding!

Windows reacted with all the stability of blancmange flung from a carriage window...

Second mention of this venerable dish as a standard of OS stability. I believe it is time to create a culinary-based stability scale. I propose the following:

MOST STABLE

Twinkies ... Lasts indefinitely with little to no input.

Steak and Potatoes ... A classic. Takes some effort to get wrong, but can be done.

Tuna Sandwich ... May be OK for a while, but has a definite shelf life.

Blancmange ... Will sit there, slowly spreading out and losing form. Eventually devolves into pool of mush.

Hollandaise Sauce ... Will break if you look at it wrong.

LEAST STABLE
