- Very important, I think, is also the stability of the system. 68040 can use
- its MMU to protect task memory, so why not use it? I reboot my Amiga too many
- times a day, when developing software. Buggy software can so easily
- destabilize the entire system. Can't have that no more in '96! (Yes, that
- means Win95 also should be NT; but OK, it must be a little like DOS, so it
- does an OK job).
