Hi Glenn,
That's not my experience.  Have you run a PocketPC for any length
of time? I used a Palm for over a year, and a PocketPC for 8 months
now. The PalmOS handheld crashed a number of times with several 
different shareware programs.

On the other hand, my PocketPC has *never* crashed. PocketPC is built 
on a subset of Windows NT, it is VERY stable. It is a modern OS with
real protected memory and premptive multitasking. You can't compare it
to Windows 95/98/ME for stabiltiy.

Don't get me wrong, I have lots of respect for the PalmOS handhelds,
they are generally stable. Both PocketPC and PalmOS derive stablity from
having the OS in ROM and not having a hard drive. But PalmOS lacks 
protected memory, so when one app goes down it can take the whole 
PalmOS system with it.

BTW, since you're a Mac user; Pocket RCT will installable from a 
Macintosh computer, and can trade tuning files with RCT/Mac. We continue
to support both Windows and Mac platforms.
