I'd be inclined to believe that all the PCs were in a marginal
condition, for some reason (e.g. a history of being stressed, never were
very good hardware in the first place, etc.), and that *any* prolonged
system stressing activity might have been the final straw for them, with
your recent adventure just being an unfortunate circumstance at the end
of their lifespan.
