Hmm, I have a 350 Mhz G3 and Rev isn't slow.  Speedwise I have no complaints.

I'd seriously like to buy a license for Rev but am not likely to do 
so at this time, as it is so buggy.  I get so many crash and burns. 
In the course of one day, it will easily just quit on me minimum 20 
times (losing whatever work I'm in the process of, even though I save 
about every 5 minutes now because of the quits).  And several times a 
day it freezes, hard freeze, requiring a hard restart of the computer.

I've taken to copying every piece of code into a SimpleText file, 
every code change I make or build immediately gets cut and pasted 
even before I hit the APPLY button, as the APPLY button often bugs 
out and mangles the code.

I know that when I buy a licence, I will not be able to get one that 
includes upgrades, at least not in the near future, and as upgrades 
are the only way to get the bug fixes, I will sit on this until the 
program is stable, or I may go back to using Metacard.  I'm going to 
try using Metacard directly again, and see if I still get the crashes 
and quits.

Very frustrating, especially since I like the program!
