Let's look at this reasonably.  What can we rule out and what's left
afterwards?  OK, we know it's not just Navigator Gold, but we have a
strong suspicion that it's Gold interacting with something else.  It has
been suggested that it could be Gold interacting with Win3.1.  It could
also be something to do with the system - amount of memory, other
programs running at the same time, etc.  If we can find one other person
for which the animation fails reliably, we can record the conditions of
both systems and see what things are similar.  We can then rule out some
of those things, by looking at other systems.  We then have left the
answer.  Unfortunately, this involves a lot of work, and I have a
suspicion that Joan just walked under a ladder before she programmed it.
