I'm not talking about the look itself. I'm talking about the exchange of
information. I wouldn't care if the whole thing was bright pink as long as I
can figure out how it works, which is not the case with any of the MAC OSes
I've seen so far.

I said I was crashing it less frequently, not every time I use it. The
previous OSes were every single time, not OSX, so there's an improvement
there.
And what I mean by "crash" is that I have to unplug the computer from the
wall outlet. So yeah, that's a crash by pretty much all standards.
Most of the time, it happens when I install my son's games. but since it's
the only thing I do on the MAC, that doesn't mean much. My son can get his
games to freeze too, and sometimes severely enough that I have to unplug the
iMac.
