84. If OS X is crashing, check for hardware problem (Bad RAM, Bad IDE Cables)
If you or your lab are experiencing crashes of OS X, check the hardware.

I had problems with OS X crashing a few times.

Once it turned out that a stick of RAM was bad. Replaced the stick, everything was cool.

Once it turned out that there was a tiny pinhole in my IDE cable. I replaced the cable and it was fine.

Once it turned out that my Maxtor 20gig system disk was physically failing. I went to the staples, got a new drive, and everything was fine.
