Ken, a crap code is a crap code, even if it fails on a single system. I
believe, everyone should be glad that non-standard testing helps to detect
obscure bugs.
P. S. Wait a few years, and you will be in the similar situation with
Intel as I am now with PowerPC. Would you appreciate the same attitude of
“why would we care to fix a bug if it does not affect us”?
