It's disappointing to see they still have no support for layer styles, which is critical to the workflow of most designers, despite the fact that the most popular threads on their forums are full of people requesting just that.

Myself and plenty of other people would love to get away from Photoshop, but without this feature, it's simply not an option.

If you were worried about non-www links working during downtime/issues, you could setup multiple cheap hosts around the world with nothing more than a rewrite to the www. subdomain (where your main app is hosted). Then add the multiple IPs to your root domain's A records - that way you have no configuration to worry about (the non-www hosts literally just redirect to the same path on a different domain), and you don't have to worry about those redirects going down due to DNS round robin on multiple hosts.

I'd go much bigger than 11px... I think it's pretty much a given that the download trial link is way too small. It needs to be clear for people that they can give it a try without having to fork out $500 immediately. I don't think you need A/B tests to prove that - it's pretty much a given that 10px is too small.

I'd also agree with @patio11 - the website is outdated, unprofessional and I wouldn't trust it. I'd pay a decent web designer a couple of thousand to get a bespoke design that will be much more suitable than what you have now.

Anyone know how to get this functionality in Sass without using Compass?

Not really related to the story, but can someone explain to me why Americans put '$425MM', where does the second M come from? Here in the UK we'd just put '£425m'? Just curious because I saw DHH use MM too.
