I don't think the Amiga OS qualifies as "solid". Recently, a friend of mine
spent a couple of hours on an Amiga trying to prove to me how great it was.
During that time, he ran various demos, games, and graphics programs (many
of them being sold commercially), and the Amiga crashed consistently.

This was using version 1.2 of Intuition for the first hour, and then going
back to 1.1 for the second hour. With either version of the OS, the Amiga
crashed so often that my friend was rather embaressed.

Maybe you use an unreleased version of Intuition???
