Crackers are hackers, hackers aren't crackers. Hackers can be crackers if they choose to venture into world of crime.

Here's another side of the issue, just awhile ago, someone posted a question regarding another topic and mentioned that he used a stolen username/password from another website to get into it. Another user posted, calling that person a hacker. Now, in my opinion, he didn't do shit, all he did was use stolen username/password. He didn't do anything that crackers would do to get ahold of the username/password.

Just my 2 cent.
