Zane;
I am most curious to know what it is that you do such that OS 9 was
more stable for you and why you prefer it to OS X pre-emptive
multitasking?
I know that machines can behave differently depending on what they're
used for...I know that I had my fill of those little exploding bomb
ball dialogue boxes which the computer could sometimes barely draw,
when I'd get a system bomb...which would be several times a day some
days...
