Just thought I'd pass on this info.

These are 2 situations where FBII bombs on me systematically
on a G3 but they are not bugs, so just be warned.

1 changing resolution in an app running in FB
  This is not part of the code, just changing resolution using
  the control panel. It would seem normal as FB does quite a
  bit of trickery, hiding FB, and pushing your app's
  ressources in.

2 When the Hard Drive is 'asleep'. Quite often when I get stuck
  I stand up and pace in circles (it helps sometimes) then grab
  a coffee, note down stuff, gaze out of the window, wonder
  when the guys'll come back and fix the holes in the roof...
  Anyway, economy mode hits after 20 minutes, and even tho'
  I think everything is ok, FB bombs if I try to do a compile
  straight away. Forcing everything to recompile works.
  This must be that when the hard drive is 'waking up', not
  everything is there, 'in time' for FB.

That's all folks - forewarned is forearmed.
