It's possible to run OS9 without crashing, and for me it's not OS9 itself that causes the crash, it's OS9 that allows crashes caused by badly written Internet apps - word processors and most "multimedia" apps (music players, final cut pro) and "pro" apps (photoshop, bryce/poser, indesign2, pagemaker6.5, dreamweaver/flashMX) do just fine.

It's one of the reasons I'm considering OS9 on my Pismo as the "work" machine, as well as to keep pictures on and rip cds while I'm not at my iMac.
