Hi Mitch, I run the same versions of Mathematica and OS X on a MacBook pro and it seems very stable. I have experienced rare "spinning color wheels of death" . This has been very rarely in Mathematica and mostly using SuperDuper for backup. This seems related to intermittent hardware (maybe firmware) problems with my WDMyBook 1TB drives.
