[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I have been using wintel machines since the first Compaq clone came out and 10MB hard drives were radical. The machines have been stable and useful for my needs until the current machine which randomly crashes apparently to some driver conflict. So, after removing all my daughters games and just about everything else on the computer but Microsoft products, PS, and iPod software, and the drivers for my film scanner and printer the D&*$ thing still randomly crashes. So, my next machine will be an intel based Mac despite the pain of switching licenses for Adobe. I am really not a good customer to have if the product proves unreliable.
