Jan's choice has my vote. I have discovered that I can scan with my
Canoscan FS4000 in Vuescan, while editing images as they get saved by
Vuescan. I did not realise how wonderful it was to multitask so easily.
However, I have a SCSI card which, I think, gives my G4 Mac hassle and
causes permananent sleeps.

Unix terminal window and numerous Unix servers. It never crashes:

The last time my server was down was to install an OS update.
