Spoken by someone who doesn't use a shell for most of their work. Between the muscle memory of the trackpad gestures, (cmd+space) spotlight search, and bash, I'm about 150% more efficient on a Mac than windows, though I'll admit I'm only marginally less efficient in a pure linux environment. Unskilled drone work may vary, but windows UI is an inefficient clusterf&*%, and I hate it.

With that logic, you as head of Adobe would continue to test Photoshop 4 against current windows updates then wouldn't you. At some point you just expect HTML to render don't you?


For web application developers this attitude is unreasonable. You can't possibly test your development code and every previous release against every browser variant every night. The other point you seemed to miss is that Mozilla's bug BROKE CODE THAT WORKED WHEN IT WAS RELEASED.


The point of this whole discussion isn't that there was some new release, but that Mozilla was actually nimble enough to respond as quickly as they did.


You keep trying to turn this into some ugly flame war over who has better development practices. Take a valium.
