mmm. since you seem rather hung up on this, let me explain why i brought it
up. (though TBH i thought it would be obvious...) personally, if i am
considering spending my money on some piece of software, the first place i
look is the company's/program's homepage. the website basically gives me
the first impression of the program, and if the website looks bad, that
immediately influences my feelings about the program. if a company is
unable to make a decent website suggests something to me about their
ability to make a decent program.

now, consciously, i know that the two aren't necessarily related, but it
nonetheless has an effect, and furthermore, i suspect that many of your
prospective customers are less inclined to make that distinction. so i
figured it'd be a good idea to warn you about the fact that on some
configurations, the website doesn't look good. i know i may not really have
a standard setup, so you may decide that the actual number of people that
might have trouble with the site is so small, it's not worth your time to
fix it, that's completely up to you.

anyway, i wasn't trying to be an ass, and i'm sorry if i came across that
way. i certainly wish you good luck with stuck on algebra and hope it'll be
a success. if i had windows, i might have downloaded the beta and tried
your software, the demo on the website certainly looks very appealing.
