I agree with the fact of extreme prejudice on the part of windows users toward Mac. Everyone, from Rehab people to friends to tech people within the California system, attempted to persuade me against switching to a Mac. The person who delivered the Mac to me said, "Don't worry; when you're ready to go back to Vista, it's installed." While I'm glad it's there, Vista gives me spasms, and even XP is cumbersome and clunky-feeling after using the Mac. I'm glad to have the extensive knowledge of Windows that I do have, because I recognize its predominance in the "business world," and it looks better on my resume to have expert knowledge of both systems. That NFB article slamming the Iphone and Leopard in general speaks for itself in terms of prejudice--a disease I find particularly contemptible among the blind, who are so subjected to it. While I agree that developers of screenreaders have done a lot to advance the freedom of blind people who use computers, that's no reason why those companies should be allowed to continue in wrong or damaging behaviors, such as charging *WAY* too much, and drastically changing the display environment such that sighted users get confused by what's on the screen, just "for our own good.
