Hi Edward,
You said you wanted to use the RiscPC for major SW development. But why 
don't you switch to another machine and buy a professonial UNIX? Because 
RiscBSD is free nobody can give you a garantee that it's stable.

I can't understand you. fvwm has never crashed on my machine. Sometimes X 
yeah. But fvwm never. CAPS LOCK works on my machine.
