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?"

I'm 5'2" and it's those tables are the perfect height for typing with my nose. I'm sure people in wheel chairs can see the tops of the screens just fine.

Personally, I'm not a big fan of the bar set up. I like to be able to touch the ground with my feet.

As a very tall, very large individual, I don't like them either. My thighs are thick and God help me if the stool I'm on is even the tiniest morsel too close to the bar because that leaves me with a public demonstration of an amature amputation, or my knees keeping me far enough away to make typing and sitting a pain. And with my knees, constant standing is not on my list of "Fun Things To Do At The Apple Store".
