I'll agree that crashes with GIMP aren't much of a problem, the primary problem I was having was it locking up. The waiting for it to finish processing a function seems to solve that. Was working on some photos last night and as long as I did that no lock up just lot of waiting time. Tried a couple of things I used to do in Photoshop that I couldn't do in GIMP. Need to experiment more and see if that was just due to unfamilarity with the tools.

I have Inkscape and been working with it a bit. Just have ran into a few things and ways of setting up drawings I was used to doing in CorelDraw and Illustrator and haven't figured out how to do it in Illustrator. I know several people using CorelDraw in the sign and decal industry (seems to be the standard there) and they haven't mentioned any problems with stability.

Whichever way I decide, am going to wait for Windows 7 (or whatever they're calling the new OS) to get here and upgrade to it. Then just reload everything from stratch.
