In response to a few bug reports and complaints, perhaps i can offer some insight or something cleverly helpful. Maybe not. I was one of those insane individuals who downloaded 6.0.5 in a frantic state of mind and installed it on the 30 Macs that i manage and my Plus at home all in pretty much the same day. Since then i have hardly any bombs (my girlfriend and i use this Plus about 5 to 8 hours per day) at home. In fact, i'd say this is the most dependable system release i have used yet. I'm using, aside from normal system documents: Gatekeeper and Aid, versions 1.1.1 & 1.0.1 respectively. Have been trying Moire 3.02 and Boomerang for the last few days. I also use Facade 1.0 and Suitcase II, version 1.2.6. Again, i've had hardly any crashes- this has got to be the most trouble free system i've seen yet. As for the system's i've installed at work, most are pretty plain, apple- share workstations, with the addition of Moire 3.02, and LaunchBreak (Thanks Dean and Dave, it's great!) But again, these have been relatively trouble free. I haven't had to reinstall the System software on any machine yet, since i upgraded to 6.0.5. I hope this helps some people: As you all probably noticed, i don't run too many INITs. This is mostly because i only have 2.5 MB of RAM here at home, but perhaps this is something to consider. (Not to worship or anything. I really wish i had more memory to run neat things like Sound Master etc., but i don't, so i cant'. :) johan (eggplant@walt.cc.utexas.edu)
