Are you stable?
So, I am currently running OS X 10.5.8 with 7.4.2. Won't move to PT8 until my current project is complete(although I'm dying to play with it. So I'll probably install it on a spare drive a just mess around with it since it's just sitting here). Until recently, I was running OS X 10.4.11 with 7.4. and entirely stable. No hiccups. The same is now true with Leopard and 7.4.2.
Since I see so many folks having issues I'm just wondering, how many folks are stable right now? Chime in if you're good in 7.4.2. or your current version of 8...

Re: Are you stable?
Am I stable? kinda personal
Anyway, I think you are taking it all in the correct spirit. Never make changes during a project, unless you have a backup plan. I ran 7.4 on Tiger and 8 on Leopard with 2 drives and both worked very nicely. No problems on my last several PC setups either(but I always have that backup by rotating system drives).

Re: Are you stable?
I have rock solid stability with 10.5.8osx and 8.0.1 pt (now with the latest cs update).
But I am in the middle of some sessions, never upgrade, only after the fact, when even possible recalls are done. Tamas Dragon

Re: Are you stable?
As far as pro tools goes, yes! I am running 8.01cs1 and so far everything is stable except for Motu Symphonic taking all my computers resources (my assumption of course).

Re: Are you stable?
aside from the clocking reset (keeps defaulting to internal...which the latest cs still hasn't fixed) I've had no issues- once in a while I'll get an error, but it's uncommon, and often associated with Amplitube2 (If I try and use any of the "rack" gear it immediately crashes, or make too many adjustments during playback, etc... IK has not responded to my "wuz up with this?" e-mail-
which makes the odds of buying any future products from them poor to nil

I may concur with your assumption. I'm using MOTU Electric Keys, and it seems to be a poorly resourced program. It uses far more power than anything else I'm running. MOTU hasn't really gotten their VI game together yet...
