Feedback Summary (Cheng/Tyler/Matt)

Desktop

Starting to see more subtle desktop issues. Generally hard to pick out

• More OMTC related possibly things: Black boxes on in-browser PDFs, HTML videos are blacked out.
• Something with youtube (possibly related to flash release). Hard to know if it's significant, but there was a spike at release.
• More instances of not responding or freezing. This may be related to the start page snippet game so may have died down. We'll know more in a week.
