If I have, say, a rectangle drawn which extends off the screen, and I
"select" this rectangle, my computer crashes. Every time. It's a
"hard" crash; ctrl-alt-del does nothing. I believe this bug is
video-card or driver related, because I only have this problem on my
newest machine, a 600-MHz Gateway P-III with an ATI Rage 128-GL. I
haven't tried stepping down to the Windows VGA driver to confirm this
though. It doesn't bother me that much. I still like version 3 because
it's so damn fast, and it's not all buttered up with features I don't
need.
