Mac 64 bit?

[Graham Samuel]

OK, I stopped using LC 9 in earlier versions because of instability. Richard, you remind me how long ago all that was… anyway since your email (below) I’ve switch to 9.0.0 DP11. Seems fine, although the Project Browser still seems to update itself in real time.

(Just as an aside, I’m having lots of trouble doing LC things on two monitors (bits of the IDE disappearing, stack windows being relocated off screen etc), but I think the recent LC8 series was much the same. I’ve put in a bug report, but I am worried that the whole issue may be particular to my setup so the mother ship won’t see anything wrong.)

Thanks for the advice

Graham
