I'm doing a lot of projects with external input/output triggers like knobs and relais.

In the past years I used a lot of different interfaces:

custom midi to relais, making things, arduino, lanbox,...

I now use the arduino for a simple 4 button 4 relais system but is seems that it isn't stable enough for my applications: after a year of continuous operation it fails.

What do you guys use for simple stable input/output board? (OSX usb but I prefer network) I was looking in to industrial fieldbus interfaces like "can bus" or many others: anyone tried it with max?

So here comes my question:

What's happening with the arduino? Just curious as I have 

I'm happy with my makingthings' interface, but never stressed it like

What's happening with the arduino? Just curious as I have  
installations with arduinos running...

you'd do ;-)

the arduino boards (old model, before Diecimila)

just stops responding on my buttons, it outputs some strange characters, after I uploaded the code again it works but only for a few days. I now replaced them with Diecimila model, I hope that it stays stable...

Maybe I should try the new makingthings board.
