In Macintosh developer circles, Steve Dorner's attitude is viewed affectionately as a cultural treasure. His "unprofessional" (brutally honest) commentary is considered a breath of fresh air. Sometimes it creeps into the software itself. A check-box in one version bears the legend "Waste cycles drawing trendy 3D junk". I wouldn't get too excited about this. It only means all is well.

Incidentally, there was never a 16-bit Macintosh. :-)
