Hmm, that's an interesting thought. I don't run KDE (I run IceWM), but I often have Netscape crashes. But I'm running on a 1MB older video card and only 32MB RAM and am always getting messages from Netscape about not having enough resources (or memory?) to set color pallettes (or somesuch -- I just ignore the messages now so I don't remember what they say). So it may be that the people having crashes have fewer "resources" than the people not having crashes.
