I have experienced DW crashing...but i don't think that was since the first or second version (5 & 6 I believe)that came out after Macromedia bought Allaire. I don't recall having that issue with 8. As far as eclipse...I have had a problem with an install just not being right. All i had to do was re-download it and all was well.
