Did a "non scientific" survey. Using search on this forum, instances of the following words in all threads since we started. (assuming the "search" function works correctly)

stability - 35
crash - 25
SL - 166
series - 261
lock - 62
reset - 243
skip - 113
slip - 44
find - 341
limits - 75
dual buffer - 44
wishlist - 28

Not that this means anything, just kind of an indicator of what's being discussed. I was contemplating a poll on what ranks highest in the "still needs fixing" and thought this may give me some insight.

I'm sure others will find more.

Do you get different numbers each time you run the search. ;)

Let's see, just reran "stability" and got 36. Like I said, just for interest. (Idle time between PC reboots)

Could it be the original post is what took it from 35 to 36 :)

Hey, i tried "locked" instead of "lock" as in "locked up"- returned 500 results instead of 62

I had not tried that one. Good find.

I think you must have searched the whole site, not just this forum. When I do that I only get 73. BTW, 500 is the maximum.

crap - 57
:D

Loading this thread with crap (no pun intended) isn't really doing much if you're only counting threads (which is now at 58). But if you count posts, it's around 107 or so (and increasing with this thread).
