David,
In that case, IMHO, your time would be better spent writing feature requests and bug reports. I am not saying that Adobe never reads these forums, they probably do. But they pay more attention to direct emails and reports. If you really want to catch their attention, spring for a stamp and send snail mail.
Perhaps my frustration is showing. I apologize. I just get tired of hearing people blast Adobe for not supporting a new OS that just came out this week. Especially since almost everyone here knows that Adobe never announces in advance. With the exception of announcing the Mac version for this summer. It could be announced next week for all we know. I doubt it, but it is possible.
Also, I never crash Premiere Pro. So I really don't understand why other people don't avoid doing the things that cause crashes. Do I wish I didn't have to avoid them? Sure! Do I know how? Apparently. Of course, I use After Effects to help me avoid issues that cause problems with Premiere Pro. And I use Audition to get my audio ready.
I do have the advantage of not having the type of clients who watch over my shoulder. I show them the almost finished material, get their input, and deliver the product. Much easier, I admit. Nonetheless, I still don't crash. I do reboot now and then when I have been using multiple apps during the editing process. But that is just a hassle I can deal with for now.
My PC is relatively new (
