As some of you know, I'm a brainwashed free software zealot. Of course this
is when I'm not a brainwashed Microsoft zealot, a peddler of unsubstantiated
rumor and innuendo, or a slightly overdone grilled ham and cheese sandwich.
But usually I'm a brainwashed free software zealot. I think.
However, it's things like this that make me so. I'm getting daily barrages
from the press mailing lists I'm on about how soon various companies will
be supporting the new Apple hardware. The general tenor seems to be "within
2006" and then lots of mumbo jumbo about which apps will be supported on
which hardware and so on. Then, over at slasdot where we brainwashed automotans
of Richard Stallman and his nefarious GPL practice our goose stepping, someone
asked the Firefox development team when they would support the new stuff.
Their answer, roughly, was, "Oh, that's already pretty much done. A bug here
and there with some plug-ins but we're nearly all set. Yeah, and there's
a solid late beta you can download and use now. Oh, and Thunderbird will
be done soon too. Thanks, and if ya think of it maybe buy a T-Shirt?"

Is it me, or am I catching a hint of that sarcasm again? ;>)

Me? Sarcastic? I can't imagine why you might say such a thing.
