Hmmmm.... yes..... well.... it never occurred to me to suspect the RAM.
TechTool Pro has never faulted the RAM.
The dozen 128 Meg DIMMs from Velocity Upgrades have been in this box simply forever, or since that fateful day two or three years ago when Velocity Upgrades accidentally published an ad offering them for $16 or $17 each.
They played nicely together with the four 604e processors installed and have not been a problem with the G4 Sonnet card, and I have experienced NO anomalies under System 9.1 or 10.2.6.
The ONLY time it happens is when I run OSX 10.2.8, which is installed on a 7.45 Gig partition (First partition) of an 80-gig Maxtor ATA drive.
"Frequent" C.O.D.'s works out to two or three times per week on a civilised machine that otherwise has not frozen or crashed since before Christmas.

Lately I have been plagued by quite a few C.O.D.'s while running various apps.
It happens randomly so I can't pinpoint any specific set of circumstances that triggers it.
