   Any of these relevant to the problem that you were complaining about?

   I’ll call your bluff. Come along to alt.comp.software.firefox:   
   somebody there had an issue with font rendering on Firefox. Naturally   
   I assumed that the problem was Windows-specific, and asked if the   
   problem could be reproduced on Linux: turned out it could not -- it   
   was specific to Windows.   
      
   Now you know why I keep saying, if you have trouble with an   
   open-source package on Windows, it’s always worth trying the same   
   thing on Linux for comparison. That comes from long experience,   
   watching people suffer on Windows.   
      
   Experience which grows day by day.
