If your computer is crashing then there's something wrong with it. The software should crash before the OS does due to priority settings - the OS is always the first to get resources as far as I know. Your browser should crash if it goes over the limit of what your system is capable of but not the entire computer.
Besides, I managed to watch it with a 5 year old $500 laptop (3gigs RAM, basic chipset graphics). It was laggy, sure, but it didn't crash.
