I can't even see it in Opera's links tab. Weird.
Reminds me of the SUPER ©[^] video converter download page(s), which are so far away from desirable UX that they're not even in the alphabet.

Not talking about the UI of the app itself. The design is about as bad as the software is awesome. (Mind you, I prefer it this way around).

...Because they are busy selling you their stuff.
And I thought providing the different links to download different browsers is Microsoft's job. 
But I like the new Twitter feed integration with Safari.

I have submitted the feedback. I guess they are secretly planning to launch Mac App store for Windows.

Why is Ben scratching your head?
I have to agree the usability has gone downhill. My uodate icon currently has several updates that need to be loaded, A couple that I've installed have had me restoring my iPod touch from a backup. I need to google what each update breaks prior to installing.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

Now seriously, is there any download link somewhere ?

Nope. Not on that page, anyway.
You probably have to install itunes to get it.

Racist discovers he is Black[^]
However, it should be pointed out that we all have African ancestry.
It is also an oddity but virtually all the indigenous white people in Britain have some black African ancestry.
Black people have been living in Britain since at least Roman times, possibly before, (indeed, the Emperor Severus was a Black African who died in York after failing to invade Scotland).
So for anyone who is white to be a Supremacist not only shows stupidity and contemptuous intolerance, but also woeful ignorance of their own history.
I am not above pettiness, but I cannot abide racism, or the French.

I hate all generalisations.
The only instant messaging I do involves my middle finger.
English doesn't borrow from other languages.
English follows other languages down dark alleys, knocks them over and goes through their pockets for loose grammar.

Well, if he wants to create a concentration camp for undesirables, I say that we let him get on with it.

When I think about all the beautiful women and all the colors and styles (hair, eyes, etc.), I can't comprehend why any male with a mg of testosterone could possibly be a racist. Sexist, maybe (I want them all) but . . . well, I just don't get it.*
* This opening about 'getting it' was deliberate - have fun.

Well, actually, racism and attraction can co-exist. African-Americans come in all sorts of skin tones that you won't find in Africa, and this goes back long before abolition.

Go back far enough and everyone's family tree has roots in Africa. That's where the human race is from, and that's the only "race" there really is.
There will always be people who fear and (therefore) hate anyone who is different from "their" group, no matter how ridiculous the "difference" is. I once heard an Irishman complain (in a rather racist manner) about immigrants, which floored me as an American.

There's a song in the show "South Pacific", You've Got To Be Carefully Taught
It explains the whole system so well that, when the show was going through it's original off-Broadway shakedowns there was a very strong push to remove the song. The authors, fortunately, were adamant and it remained.

Last week , India launched its 1st mission to Mars. Last weekend I was talking with my nephew and he was totally going nuts about this launch and declared that he wants to be a "spaceman" and was giving many trivial facts about mars. He informed that whole school was watching this launch on TV live. So I went back to internet and started reading on this, quite impressive story but then something struck me odd. Some articles were little bias,
Quote: The extent to which countries were motivated by pragmatic interest or prestige varied from nation to nation. "For a country like Australia, the space aspirations are extremely pragmatically driven. On the other hand, a country like Malaysia is intent on putting astronauts in space -- that's very prestige-oriented."
Really, Its not pragmatic for Malaysia.
Also other critics pointed that India still have poor people in streets. Thats true but why this should stop India from launching mission. Throughout the history, Men/Women/Nations have dreamt big inspite of hardships.
They can be mutually exclusive. Investing in science will help us in future.
Eg,
In 1999, India was hit by typhoon which resulted in 10,000 deaths.
--Change--
In 2013, India was hit by typhoon which resulted in 0 Deaths
During this --Change--, India launched 30+ commn/weather satellites, which resulted in properly predicting the storm path/intensity and helped in proper evacuation and saving of life.
If this launch triggers some hundred young mind to take applied science over "Software" , then this is mission is already as success
cheers,
Super

"You have poor people on the streets and are still taking international aid."
"So since you can afford space missions and nuclear weapons, you should not have any international aid."
Discuss.
