I hardly remember 2.0 _not_ recovering! This says to me that 2.0 is an order of magnatude more stable than 1.3, which also says that CBM _IS_ shipping an unstable OS in it's new machines that hurts it's image, it's called KS1.3! The stability is NOT affected by remaping the OS into ram using Zkick, in fact, a 2500/30 using Zkick boots faster, recovers from system errors, retains the OS in memory after crashing...running commercial games...and rebooting a lot, and runs WB2.0 far better than 1.3.3 can!! You would have to be a fool not to use Zkick and OS2.0 on a 2000 series machine today, it is safer! David -- "All of us get lost in the darkness, dreamers learn to steer by the stars.
