I recommend to use local wallet, not online, I use MultiBit, before I used bitcoin-qt, but it was too expensive for me to dwnload whole blockchain..
Yes, but then please use Ubuntu without internet connection because Windows isn't safe. Without internet connection both are safe. Basically yes, but every Windows user knows how Windows can disappear suddenly. It's just my opinion, I think Ubuntu works better. This was known problem for old Windows. I have never had problems with Windows 7 and newer, but had problems with Ubuntu (I admit that I installed a lot of things). Every PC user knows that backup is critical. Just sayin' because I had a lot of trouble with Windows + Bitcoin last year. Lost a huge amount of Coins because of my foolishness to trust Windows completely. Never mind, it will never happen again.

Oh no! I'm using and relying on Windows atm. Can you give me more details on what exactly happened? The data just simply disappeared?

I'd recommend Bitcoin-Qt. It would help bitcoin in general since you'd be running a node on the network. But you'd have to sync with the blockchain, which takes a lot of patience and memory. I think it's around 21 GB now?

Since you can carry it around it can effectively act as an online wallet.

I had problems with my hardware (with the motherboard). It suddenly disappeared and the HDD got erased You didnt create a backup You probably do that now but for others, you can write down the private key on a piece of paper and keep it with you. Dont save the key on your computer.

I think it's around 21 GB now? You might not be helping the network. You need to first port forward the router to 8333 TCP before you can be a full node. The network needs stable nodes with high uptime than a household one which has a lower uptime and stability. The blockchain is currently at 26GB.

In this post there are 2 things holding bitcoin back 26GB Technical jargon.. What the hel is 8333 TCP port..

Port can be opened by googling your router model, theres plenty of places teaching people how to do that. The main drawback is the synchronization time and the space, in the next release, headersfirst synchronization would make synchronization faster. Blockchain pruning in the future will also reduce the size.

Port cant be opened if the service provider blocks it. A lot of them dont allow anything other than the basic http port. I have been hearing blockchain prunng for a long time and still there is nothing.

I've never heard of xapo before.
I'd say stick with coinbase.

Has the security issue been resolved yet for Blockchain.info? There was a bug that let others control your private keys and people were using their coins to hackers.

Yes, it was resolved hours after it was discovered. It was basically a bug which caused the private keys to reuse a value to generate a private key repeatedly. It only affected those private keys generated within blockchain.info during that time, to be more accurate.
