I am not sure if I have an older MD or not, but I purchased my MD about 3-4 years ago.

I have taken it apart all the way down to the chassis and circuit boards when the U/W circuit upgrade board arrived so I have def messed with it a lot...

I honestly don't remember it freezing in the last 3 years EXCEPT upon boot up occassionaly and I use it pretty frequently...

It definetely has never frozen while playing, I would notice that and it would anger me...

  I see there are competent users here. I've had the MD for some years now.
  With the misgivings about freezing and not duplicating the sounds of a 
  previous days use, I still like having it around. I didn't lose the faith when
  MD would have most buyers questioning it's readiness. Like a good consumer
  I let it be known there were difficulties. Now I have a MnM with the same issues.
  I believe a lot has been accepted as just another day with the machines shutting
  down or losing info. 
  I would have liked more than a month to check out the machines. If you have any
  kind of life, I don't feel it's enough time to get past the initial perceptions of being
  very programmable boxes. People do not expect this from modules. Not the
  creative way to work the machines. Not the unreliable performance. With these 
  machines it isn't a matter of pairing a computer to a person who can't get a calculator to 
  work. Yet here's another machine, with similar inclinations to mess up a session.
  Albeit a session that would not be possible without the machines.

  Probably just a sour note. since I don't have audio record nor a file manage plan
  just now. I don't know that I should have to record to keep the info viable. Sure, many
  times that is the better course, or people wouldn't have samplers for some uses.
  Just a creampuff blowing off steam. Hope you didn't read all that! It is a strange
  love hate (mild dislike) type of relationship right now.
