I've certainly seen applications take over and crash UNIX boxes, OS/2
boxes, NT boxes and just about every other PC or or Workstation OS. Every
system is crashable to some extent. Poor code is poor code, especially if
the system/OS vendor publishes the rules needed for proper application
performance.

All the best,
