I shattered one glass carboy and that was enough for me. I'm very lucky it didn't injure me. IMO there's no reason to use glass, even for extended aging.

edit: I do some aging in 1gal glass, but IMO that's a whole different animal.
 
I will beat the horse... get some corny kegs as previously suggested.

Easier to handle than the flexible PET carboys, near infinitely more durable than glass carboy (and to some degree PET too), can pressure seal them with nitrogen or argon (some assert CO2 low dose works without making fizzy wine), blocks light, small footprint, can even dispense from them, wine on tap.
