 > Dunno about Notator, but Cubase crashed really often.

I used an Atari ST for over 12 years. In that time Cubase crashed 
perhaps once a year for no reason. It is the most stable piece of 
software I have ever used.

Cubase 1.0 was the worst, but by 3.1 it was a rock.

Compared to Windows and DOS applications on my old Compaq 286 and 386 
machines the Atari was heaven. I only changed to the PC for music 18 
months ago.

Common causes for instability in Cubase were freebie screen savers [I 
only found one that worked really well] and the blasted dongle 
connections. As well as the usual RAM edge connectors on the STe. This 
didn't happen on my machines, but the troublesome ones I used to fix in 
school were mostly down to interconnection woes.

If I ever took my old Atari MegaST anywhere else to play, I used a 
'dongleless' version.

Never got the hang of Notator.
