[Webteam] Suggestion for Squeak Website

Hi,

I encountered a couple of issues downloading the latest Squeak for MacOS 
and thought you might want to mention them on the download 
troubleshooting page.

The first is that the downloaded file name was longer than 31 characters 
and got truncated. It took me a little while to realize that was the 
problem and to rename it to something that would work. I understand 
MacOS can have longer file names, but perhaps some folks (like me) 
haven't figured out that part.

The second is that, once I got it unstuffed, Squeak would launch and 
just show a blank white window. Nothing happened when clicked or typed. 
I found an older VM 3.7.5b3 which seems to work just fine.

BTW my MacOS is 10.1.5.

Cheers,
Bob
