True story:

We used DotNetBar a couple years ago to develop a custom ERP for a Fortune 500 inc.
All seems to work fine, but my customer report to us he get randoms BSOD.
Analyzing the dumps we discovered that BSOD were caused by DotNetBar.

So..What you want? A cool (?) nice looking app with random hangs ups and BSOD or a robust app with standard controls (but full funcionallity), light, faster and with out hangs ups or BSOD?

We were really focused on what we wanted for fix up: bye bye DotNetBar.
