I do not play many mods on my A1200, I just haven't found to many
metal mods.  (Megadeth, Metallica, Ozzy Osbourn, etc)
I never claimed that AmigaDOS was without problems, but as a whole
package, I have not seen anything better.
Buy that way, what kind of configuration do you have on your Amiga?
Do you have an aga machine with 3.1?  How about your cpu.
Do you have an '030 50 Mhz '882 50 Mhz? or better.

I usually do a substantial amount of work when I download files
I do not get CRC errors or crashes.  I even use Ymodem-g for
downloads and set my dte to 115200.

I do not seem to have the same amount of trouble you do while
multitasking.  I will agree that two megs of chip is not really
enough, I would prefer 4 megs anyway.
