While I've been hit with some annoying bugs and a couple of lack of features like no system beep passed through Konsole, I've not seen the crashes. Perhaps that has more to do with your video driver and kernel. Other than KDM refusing to start since upgrading to KDE4, after installing kernel 2.6.29-2 the video stuff was much improved (I'm using the Radeon driver).
At the risk of starting a flame war, it seems as though some of GNOME's philosphy has rubbed off onto the KDE devs. They now seem to worry about "confusing" and too many options and seem intent on following GNOME's path toward dumbing down the interface. If both major desktops head off in that direction it may be time to look for a third option. On my main workstation I still run KDE 3.5.10 and even though it is Sid, it hasn't been updated for several months and it's running just fine. I'm keeping Sid current on a T41 laptop and will only update the desktop once I feel KDE4 is ready for my prime time. In fact, I still have OOo Calc 2.3 installed on this machine as some later version screwed up the sorting rather badly. - Nate >> -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds.
