Perhaps i am the only one, but i never experienced even one single crash using Flash CS4 / Fireworks CS4 (mac). I use Flash CS4 everyday. Sometimes a session last for almost a whole week. No crash yet!!

But Fireworks does have tonns of annoying bugs.

You're incredibly lucky, I usually have to restart Flash a few times a day and actually I spend more time in coding in Eclipse/FDT than using Flash itself.

It crashes occasionally after publishing or test-movieing, but far worse is as soon as I start doing anything stage/library/timeline related I'm almost guaranteed at least a few crashes before I'm done.
