Enjoy your freedom? Good joke man... !!! :-)
How about the freedom of your users, them non Mac users, how many visitors
do they represent? If everyone starts designing like that, you actually
create some sort of ghetto for Mac users, IE users passing by seeing no more
then a middle finger in the name of that freedom. I would expect better for
someone who presents himself as a pro.
Sherm, you say you only have 5% of IE/Win users, a self-limited amount, how
many visitors you might have if your site would be available to everyone?
The whole idea to build a website is to attrackt visitors and inform people,
it is why you're posting your links in your sig, no? So I, a non Mac user,
visit your site and turns out you've build a site site for Mac users only.
If you can't be bothered with non Mac users why not inform them in your sig
that your sites are for Mac users only and that others don't have to bother
to visit because they only get half the works? Why not just post your sig
in stricktly Mac communities? How much of you freedom would that take?
Kind Regards,
Steven
