Usually Microshit browsers on Macs in my experience. Most of the 
problem is due to people trying to control the layout too precisely. 
That is what the browser software is for.

People using Microshit browsers have made their own bed and I have no 
sympathy for them (as I have no sympathy for people who use Microshit 
HTML creation software, except in specific circumstances).

People with Mac problems I have a lot of sympathy for. I have seen a 
number of instances where text disappeared on a Mac, but did not on a 
PC running the same version of the browser.

Overall I don't see a great problem, except that central government 
has a love in with Microshit.
