M11-113-2 has crashed ("panic: Reserved operand") 3 times in the 2 hours I
have been using it. I checked in the consultants' office and found this is
not unusual. If the parallax hardware makes the machines this unreliable,
we would be much better off throwing out the video cards and putting
monochrome displays on these machines.
If anyone cares, this is all I can get from a crash dump:
