They might note that savvy Mac users use Camino, not Firefox.
Yeah, but the most vocal seem to want to use Safari. (My guess is that they like being difficult ;) )
I downloaded and used it in Firefox on my Mac last night - it works great.
There has been an Yahoo! Companion toolbar for Firefox for quite some time already: http://companion.mozdev.org It is written in JavaScript, thus it is multi platform (across OS platforms). Do you know if the one developed by Yahoo is put together in the same way?
A9 has a good toolbar for Firefox, Mozilla and Netscape - http://toolbar.a9.com/
