Ken,

I'm just not experiencing the crashes you are with OS X, but then I do 
make sure I do regular maintenance on my machines (but I also did this 
with OS 9), and I did a "Clean Install" with Jaguar.  These are 
development machines also, not web servers.

I can agree with you on the time differential for running DiskWarrior 
on OS X vs. OS 9 thought.  I ran it last night, starting about 7:00 
p.m., and it didn't complete until about 2:30 this morning.

Don't know if you saw this, but DiskWarrior 3 preorders are being taken 
at:

They do say there has been a dramatic speed improvement.  I hope it's 
true.
