I am afraid I have to disagree with you. I have been using Textures on a Mac Plus for quite some time now. My Mac has 2.5 Mbytes of memory, and I have NEVER hadd a crash in response to an error. I have had crashes when I had only 1 Mbyte of RAM. You are probably wrong in saying that it may not be a memory problem. Ameet Bhansali (ameet@portia.stanford.edu)
