So when that happens, it will be important to have the option.
Until then, since I have no reason to run a "production database" on my workstation, why would I want ECC?

That's fine by me. Living here on "the edge", even with overclocked memory, my system is the most stable system I have ever owned.
I really can't see any reason to use ECC on my desktop apart from fear of hand-wavy potential issues.
Is my personal experience so unique? Are any of you actually experiencing instability that you are sure is caused by physical memory errors that are fixed by using ECC memory?
