>> In other words up to 10% of all the crashes Firefox users see are not software bugs, they're caused by hardware defects!

I find this impossible to believe.

If this were so all devs for apps, games, etc... would be talking about this but since this is the first time I'm hearing about this I'm seriously doubting this.

>> This is a bit skewed because users with flaky hardware will crash more often than users with functioning machines, but even then this dwarfs all the previous estimates I saw regarding this problem.

Might be the case, but 10% is still huge.

There imo has to be something else going on. Either their userbase/tracking is biased or something else...
