ADA Wank, with a side of Mac Vs. PC and Liberal Vs. Conservative!
So, two California women are suing Apple for alleged accessibility violations in its SF retail store. The comments on the article are, needless to say, wanky, with some complaining about the liberal activist agenda, allegations that the women are just out to make a quick buck, and the occasional disabled person chiming in on both sides of the issue.

Also, WTF is a "standing wheelchair?"

Well once I had a friend talk me through some of the differences its really not that much harder to use than a Windows laptop. The main difference really is the presence of the program dock down the bottom of the screen - its like your system tray and start menu all at once, and its customisable. Oh, and you could probably go without an anti-virus program if you had the desire (although there is apparently one virus that can attack OS X), but I'd probably recommend you get something so you don't inadvertently pass one on.

And its so shiny!

And I have to add, I'm totally enamoured of my multi-messenger program (Adium). When I get a message the icon jumps and flaps its wings :D

Aww... I want something that wing flaps.

Basically, I'm getting more into photography and wanting to do more stuff with the pics after their taken. I understand Macs are better for that than Windows. Do you have much experience there?

I haven't really fiddled with imaging yet I'm afraid. I haven't even dragged my mp3 collection over from my PC yet. I'm terrible at being a nerd :`(

I'm getting more into photography

I was skimming and read that as "I'm getting more into pornography".

The internets have permanently trashed up my brain! D:
