Ron - he's talking about upgrading his desktop to Mac OS 10.2, a.k.a.
Jaguar ("This version of Mac OS X is as innovative as the computers
that run it.").  And he says that now Codewarrior (not an app that runs
on Palm OS) crashes more than it did on an (unspecified) earlier
version of the Mac OS.  It has nothing to do with the various Palm OS
SDKs.  It most likely is because Apple changed something fundamental in
the OS that CW relied upon.

Very sensible advice, even for other, more stable, platforms.
