Although it's not a strict crash, running a batch file that spawns about five of itself made my system running 1.3 unusable until I figured out how to kill them fast enough... This was on a 386/33 w/ 8 MB of RAM, running 1.3 and 4OS2 0.95. It actually crashed a few times, when it apparently ran out of memory, or similar and gave me a trap of some flavor. I haven't tried this with 2.0. I really can't see why I'd want to. Scott. -- Scott A.
