Several of us are crashing a good 3-5 times a day.  I don't think I crashed 5 times in the entire calendar year of 2011. It's never anything you'd suspect either. Just now it crashed when importing an OBJ into a non-empty scene. An OBJ which otherwise imports fine in other apps, and even into Soft if the scene is brand-new. Other times, it crashes when accessing the project manager (just accessing it mind you, not even doing anything in it), or the plugin manager, or just selecting something, or whatever. We don't do that much heavy lifting with our scenes, and never had anything like this before moving to 2012. Softimage has always had remarkable stability (at least in the time I've used it (3-4 years now). Could something be corrupt in my user directory? Several of us are experiencing this, so I tend to doubt we all have the same magic corruption at the same magic time. And of course, I've 'runonce' and it doesn't seem to have changed anything in any way that reduces the number of daily crashes I'm seeing.
