Mac Misconceptions
I recently came across a co-worker who was trying to get some information off of a support website - but the computer (a PC) wasn't able to do it properly - it wouldn't print out, and converting the webpage to a .pdf file resulted in a black and white image of the new product he was trying to get. I have encountered this many times at my previous job, where the over-zealous webmaster puts in code to keep people from stealing the images and text.
Rather than consider this possibility, he was pinning the blame as a "Mac thing" - in other words, in some way, because a Macintosh has created a website in some way, it was incompatible with a PC. I have no idea if a Mac was used for creating the site or not.
I did try to set him straight on the fact it was a webmaster's coding causing the snafu - not an alleged Mac.
I was wondering if anyone else had this sort of experience from Mac-phobics.
