I think we are having a prepositional problem. There is a great deal of
difference between 'care FOR' and 'care ABOUT' in this context. "I don't
care for x" means, in this context, that I don't particularly like it, but
I don't actively dislike it.

*shrug* I thought it was pretty cool that a site previously mentioned
as rather good for what it was, should have gotten the creator her boss's
kudos and a lot of hits. However, my posting about it got three separate
complaints about it, one tempered with 'well, it's better than what else
is out there'.
