amoeba Posted July 19, 2002 Share Posted July 19, 2002 Coming from long-time experience on both PC and Mac, this is my opinion on crashing: Neither crash. It's just as simple as that. Crashing is ALWAYS user error. Something YOU installed, Something YOU misconfigured. It's rarely, if ever, the OS manufacturer's fault. Anywho =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzla Veteran Posted July 19, 2002 Veteran Share Posted July 19, 2002 That's OS 9, a piece of ****. I've never had a crash on OS X so far, average uptime of about 3 weeks on the trot. Guess I'm lucky, I never had any real crashes on XP either. Mind you, OS X does crash, just ask Timan what a kernal panic looks like ;) personally, I've never experienced one in 3 months so far...

smoke Posted July 19, 2002 Share Posted July 19, 2002 Techically they are right though. You don't get blue screens of death on a mac. You get a bomb window of death instead, hehe. Actually on the OS9 computers at school when I was doing photoshop stuff I opened a brower with a quicktime at the same time (movie previews at their site) and the paint tool started doing funky things. After I closed the browser it started painting in totally wrong and grainy colors and then the computer hard locked. I'm not kidding. I don't know what they did to that computer but I'm pretty sure it shouldn't be doing that right? I am pretty sure though if your OSX or XP computer crashes up it is because you installed some bad driver or did some other wrong thing. My computer used to get an infinate loop with the display driver in games or with flash in a browser but after having did a clean install of XP and the latest detonators from nvidia's site it has gone away. The one who said that they are made by humans so they are not perfect is right though. There is always room for error especially end user error.

smoke Posted July 19, 2002 Share Posted July 19, 2002 BTW I think one of the issues of macworld has a screenshot of a kernal panic in OSX. I forgot which issue though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realmccoy Posted July 19, 2002 Share Posted July 19, 2002 One of my good friends has always used MAC, and his machine crashes just as often as Windows 9X. Anyone that say?s that there OS whether it be MAC, Windows, UNIX is not telling the truth. After all can?t all OS be affected by poorly written software and drivers?

Rivak Posted July 19, 2002 Share Posted July 19, 2002 FYI an error 41 happens when the MacOS cannot load the Finder because it was corrupted by customization (usually). Replace it with a fresh copy from the OS9 cd. Kernel panic: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
