You are right - Apple do have a proud history of making great computers but not wanting people to know about them. I have spent the day grappling with MS Access on a PC so I KNOW that Apple make great computers! I'm back on my iMac now :-))
I am surprised that there are a number of web sites that don't work on a Mac, which may be poor design, but Apple should have a guru around to the site's developer to try and fix it. The old chestnut used to be that "You can't get software for Macs'. The new one will be - You can't access web sites - and that will really hurt sales. Apple do seem to not want to tell too many people about their product.
