Somewhere someone maintains a signal 11 FAQ (you can search the mailing lists for it). This FAQ explains how to determine whether it's bad memory, which often produces a signal 11 and something you want to consider with a new machine, or whether it's a software problem. I had a laptop installation that produced signal 11s on buildworlds and I determined it was not a memory problem.
