Changing the Subject  to be more relevant.
 
Well actually, this may be misplaced confidence but having done the conversion a
couple of weeks ago and then driven myself crazy with ribbons, commandbars etc
this is the first crash I've had. I've run most of the biggest routines and they
seem to be standing up ok, largely untouched. I have one heavy user who has had
it for a couple of days and it was he who had the crash that started this
thread, but that's the only one he's had and he's on the system all day every
day. I don't doubt there'll be some problems down the line but for
now......(touches large piece of wood)
 
Can anyone think of any banana skins they've skidded on during such a
conversion?
