And bear in mind that when I started here and pointed out that as a Mac user, 
half of our internal systems didn't work properly* - the lead developer told me 
in no uncertain terms that it was my fault for not using IE6 on Windows and no 
they had no intention of "fixing" anything. My suggestion that this was a 
rather short sighted approach fell of deaf ears ... for a while - they've had 
to change their tune these days !


* For years I had to fire up an XP VM just to do my timesheet. As a parting 
gift, another dev just before he left had a look and fixed the one missing or 
superfluous (can't remember which) ";" in some javascript that broke this 
particular system on anything but Windows/IE6 :-/
