Why does the Mac not have memory protection?  It would seem that the
"computer for the rest of them" might be a bit more robust if it could 
detect addressing errors and recover from them, as opposed to stomping on
the screen handling routines and sending drivel to the debuging device
(read "printer").  If apple is listening, PLEASE include some type of
memory protection on future releases in the Mac line!!!!  It may be hard to
do, but it would be well worth it "for the rest of us."
