We've run ebase (under FMPro 4.0v3) for a year on an iMac, and had
good luck except for sharing. As far as I can make out, FMPro simply
doesn't do sharing very well at all. If two people try to access the
same record, a crash is likely. Other than that, however, we haven't
seen FMPro crash. However, it doesn't like having the computer crash
under at all either, so we dedicated our iMac to running FMPro/ebase,
and accessed it from another computer, via FMPro sharing. Don't run
anything else on the hosting computer. Then, if your computer
crashes, the computer hosting ebase is still running. You still need
to be fanatic about backups.
