VMS : Yes NT : Yes Unix : Yes OS/2 : Yes Win95: ARE YOU KIDDING!!!??? Do you really know much about various versions of the MacOS and their relative stability? If you run a clean System (minimal shareware extensions), the MacOS is pretty stable (some OS versions more than others). The MacOS is not as stable as NT or Unix,... but Win95 crashes ALL THE TIME (much like a Mac can do if people go crazy with inits). But to say that it has "much better stability than any version of [your] MacOS" is pretty foolish. -- ____________________________________ / \ Most problems could be solved | Mark A.
