> When using the Colours window, if you're the sort of person who uses its built-in eyedropper tool to choose a colour from the wheel (rather than simply clicking on it directly), then congratulations: doing that hangs the entire system, and you've got no choice but to force a restart.

I cannot reproduce this on 27. I think writers should undertake some degree of wider research before making strong, universal claims.

Interesting, someone else said they couldn't reproduce that either, but a quick search when I wrote it confirmed I was not the only one.

On reflection it does sound like I'm implying most things in this post are universal. I, of course, would have no way to verify that. Perhaps I should've taken greater pains to note that YMMV. Thanks for that.
