Recently, a friend of mine spent a couple of hours on an Amiga trying to prove to me how great it was. During that time, he ran various demos, games, and graphics programs (many of them being sold commercially), and the Amiga crashed consistently. This was using version 1.2 of Intuition for the first hour, and then going back to 1.1 for the second hour. With either version of the OS, the Amiga crashed so often that my friend was rather embaressed. Maybe you use an unreleased version of Intuition??? Andrew Shebanow
