whats even more frustrating is when you restore, and then it crashes again immediately.

I think Chrome still has the most frustrating bug: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=31482


I'm coding in COBOL for all sorts of junk. I'm modifying and developing CICS screens that our procurement and merchandising teams still use, as well as dozens of reports, and other data wrangling. We're slowly transitioning to newer technologies, but you can't take a 20 billion dollar business from oldschool to newschool overnight. Plus, the mainframe, as archaic as it is, just chews up transactions. It is very much designed for what we're using it for, and it shows.
