Response from Wind River webmasters:
Hello Peter-
Thanks for taking an interest in the perception of our site. [...]
Most of us have been avid proponents of Firefox use for quite some time now, and it is one of the 5 browsers that we typically QA in.
There is a specific condition related to the display mechanism for our products pages that can lead to the behavior that the slashdot reader describes. Was curious to see that it doesn't seem to effect Linux versions of the browser, of course it may be that the Linux user --and possibly yourself-- just didn't happen by any of our product pages.
At any rate, we are aware of the issue and the solution is to re-engineer the entrire products section of the site. We intend to do this in March.
