- Although it's not a strict crash, running a batch file that spawns about
- five of itself made my system running 1.3 unusable until I figured out how
- to kill them fast enough...
-
- This was on a 386/33 w/ 8 MB of RAM, running 1.3 and 4OS2 0.95. It actually
- crashed a few times, when it apparently ran out of memory, or similar and gave
- me a trap of some flavor.
-
- I haven't tried this with 2.0. I really can't see why I'd want to.

- Scott.
