Hello Charles,<br>
<br>
I am also secretly OSX, and would like to know:<br>
How is the stability? My linux boxen have only _really_ crashed because
of hardware problems or gross errors on my part (like kernel compiling errors)
- how solid is OSX? What hardware are you running on?<br>
The Aqua interface is very pretty, but looks very CPU-hoggish. How is graphics
performance for games, image editing, games, screen updates, games, and games?
Also, is there an alternative "leaner" display manager?<br>
<br>
Thanks for the info,<br>
<br>
-Jeff<br>
