A89: Why is 89 so unstable?




Why the **** is ti89 so freaking unstable?
I've tried like 3 different kernels (including doors, where I had to reset
my calc twice after pressing "home" - thanks, Doors team), a version of
Doors that I had just froze it right there on ROM 1.05 when I installed it;
now I've been running lexos for some time and can't see any problems with
the kernel itself. However, it crashes like crazy! Every two days something
comes up that crashes it and I have to load everything up again! It's not
just poorly written asm's, the last time it crashed when I accidentially
made it graph a non-existent variable in 3D! Huh? What is a calculator
supposed to do when the variable doesn't exist? Answer: display "division by
zero" over top of screen and crash. I had no problems whatsoever with memory
management OR asm's on 86. None.
Sorry if I sound stupid or unreasonable; I'm new to 89. Can anyone explain
to me how to keep it stable?
