A valid point, but I think people understand this  --they're just upset on 
principle regarding
Mozilla's approach to brand image.

To the list, I'd say let's sit back and enjoy our new release, and not worry so 
much about this
kind of thing for now. Mozilla has a great deal of leverage right now, because 
Firefox is a
browser that Windows users feel comfortable with when they boot up Linux. Wait 
until Google Chrome
scoops up some market share, and both browsers start competing on Linux; it's 
easier to justify
fixing platform-specific bugs when you have a rival on that platform.

PS: I'm aware that Chrome has a half-baked Linux compile at the moment. But the 
crux of my point
still stands.
