Firefox has those, too. Just the marketing machinery around it is better.

> lots of bugs

Firefox has those, too. Especially its JavaScript engine often simply stops working, freezes, or is terrifyingly slow.

Well, I'll admit that one is true :)

> and missing features

I think it's pretty much feature-complete for 99.99999% of users :)

How are people who use Blender different to people who do not use Blender, especially in terms of browser compatibility? :) From bug reports, it seems like 99% of Blender's user base are XP, just like with any other application.

I also disagree with some states there. OK, there is indeed some info about N-Gons, but I'm not sure if I can trust it...

Not all that great. I'd say, on a scale of one to ten, a three. And that's only because it has some true things in it. But why does he insist that high-poly models won't be used for final renders?

It's nothing really pro, but it's nothing a pro can afford to forget either.
