Send them out forthwith to procure an Mac and do not let them re-enter the building without one.
Seriously. Mac Mini's are cheap-a-cheap-a and pack a hell of a wallop... so long as you're not doing sound or video *editing* on them... then again a powerbook can easily handle that sort of thing, if it's your bag and pricking's not too bad on them. But for the developer (especially LAMP folk or RoR'rs), OS X is just dreamy. Unix underpinnings and eye candy to boot. IDE? Eclipse. With the PHPEclipse plugin... even if you're just doing html, it's a cheap way to get good syntax highlighting and code completion into it. price? free. Plays oh so nice with mySQL (CocoaMySQL for a GUI DB interface), comes with Apache and PHP preinstalled. Did I mention the eye candy? very harmonious and thanks to Apples extensive interface specifications, everything pretty much behaves like you expect it to... stuff just makes sense. They *get* it. Sorry... rant. Your site looks great in the standards compliant browsers on mac. As Franni pointed out though, you've got a small issue in Exploder 5.2 for Mac. It looks like a box model botch. The nav float seems to be a bit too wide... I'm thinking a simple hack for it would clear it up... from http://www.sam-i-am.com/work/sandbox/css/mac_ie5_hack.html , something like this: /* commented backslash hack v2 \*/ #quicklinx {width:???; } /* not for IE 5.2 */ #quicklinx {width:???; } /* for IE 5.2 */ /* end hack */ Check out Dan Vine's site for a free way to get Mac screen grabs... you can at least get the nav float straight. Or just give IE the finger. I do. - Stephen On Sat, 5 Mar 2005 00:11:00 +0000 (GMT), Ross Clutterbuck <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Screen grabs would be good Franni thanks along with > system spec and browsers tested! > > MOU > > P.S.
