I'm not having kernel panics. It's just that I CANNOT say that I've NEVER had a kernel panic _OR_ a crash (endless beachball that can only be escaped by a power down). Hard claim to make with 8 machines running various versions of OS X. You did say "crash/kernel panic." ;) As far as I'm concerned, if one has involved oneself in the consistent use of the software offerings from M$, one has VERY likely experienced a crash with OS X. j mcd --- John McDaniel johnmcd at one.net ---
