It's true that OS X is more stable than any MS OS out there. As for reinstalling XP every other week, that all depends on the software that is installed and if they are designed for XP or not.
The main reason that OS X is stable is that there is very little native software for the OS and non-native software runs in the OS 9 classic mode which will not touch/harm OS X.
I use XP on my computers and usually leave them running for weeks at a time without rebooting.
The only thing that keeps me using Windows as opposed to Linux or any other OS is the fact that I rely on software (non-MS) designed only for Windows. Eventually I will make the switch (when I believe that MS knows too much about myself and my computer and that's too close already).
