Okey i upgraded to 2.8alpha and my computer still working!!!
I have a question/bug report/comment:

i was trying to smalltalk a little when my windows died. i reboot 
and restarted Squeak and received a msgbox telling me my gp-
squeak2.8.changes was missing or in the wrong directory, but i
checked and it still there.... so i created a new image and continued
working, everything was fine.

then i intentionaly induced (the word induced exist in english!?) 
some GPF in my windows to kill squeak. after repeating the
proccess i noticed that each time you do not correctly close
squeak, the next time you run, it will complaing about missing
the <your image>.changes files.

Does this heapens only with me? Is it a bug or theres some
ReadMe explaining that?

Well i might just be too anxious to spot missing holes...
