Servers do crash. I deal with crashing servers all the time. Usually hardware related issues though. Now that LSI owns 3ware, all of 3ware's products have gone to shit. Also, hard disk issues pop up at least once a week. A friend of mine works at the NCSA supercomputing facility, they deal with failed hard drives & memory all the time. Luckily, server-market people are finally starting to see the importance of raid.
I'm self taught, and work at a datacenter. I started using linux in 1999, started using freebsd in 2001, and have been working here since 2007.
