Just as much as developing solely for IE. Good lord did you even think about what you just wrote? Its a browser, not a torture device!

  "... Good lord did you even think about what you just wrote? Its a browser, not a torture device! ..." Keep your emotions in check, ad hominem.

    ad hominem -- name-calling to discredit the speaker's argument. I could care less about your thread, but ad hominem wasn't in there. At least from where I could see. He didn't personally attack you, he was surprised at your remarks.

      "... Good lord did you even think about what you just wrote? Its a browser, not a torture device! ..." Can you explain the how this language adds to the discussion without resorting to ridicule? "... I could care less about your thread ..." Chrome has the potential to be just as closed as MS (bad), Apple because the real power is in who controls the commits. Do you have anything worthwhile to add about how Chrome could become another closed system?

        I vote that it's implied name calling... "did you even think about what you just wrote" is basically calling someone stupid. Not literally, of course, but semantically it is. But I thought it was funny, no rude.
