Nelson,

There is no OS 9.6.

The latest is 9.2.2

Earlier versions of 9 were somewhat buggy. I had similar problems till I
upgraded to 9.2.2 then 99% of my crashes went away.

What a strange, long, trip it is!

remember: it's not how fast you climb the hill that matters, it's how fast
you go coming down!
