>> I've been a Mac user for over 10 years and never experienced the instability you allege. Even the early versions of OS 7.5 weren't that bad. I've been using OS 7.6.1 for a couple of months and it's been almost unflappable. <<

It is 7.6. As with many others in this list, most crashes are caused by Netscape, even after I added memory. I hear that MacOS 8 is a lot more stable though.

>> A month or so ago over on the new.com site, a reporter interviewed the CEO of Gateway. The CEO complained that Windows users spent, on average, 27% of their time fiddling with their OS. <<

IMHO, those stats are bullshit. Most users don't even know how to fiddle with their OS. The extent of their computer knowledge is how to click on MSWord, Mail, and Netscape.
