I still fail to see the difference between repetetive work on the code

I worked for a company where the graphics designers were the only ones
using mac OS systems.
So did I: I won't repeat the number, but I was told by our systems guys
that it cost an outrageous amount of money for a new guy in that
department to sit down on his first day of work.
Reasoning was, that their work could only be done
on these machines. They were special somehow and I still don't grasp
it. At that time other OSes could run their software and other OSes
could be color calibrated.
I see this again: Now graphics designers need "their" software to work,
the one available to all potential contributors is not good enough. Now
graphics designers need to be paid, contrary to other contributors.
I will pull out of this discussion - I said what I had to say and it
would be great if other people say what they think.
100% agree. If we need to expand the pool of contributors to people who
work in /open source/ design, then let's try and do that. This is
Apache, not Adobe.
