    wait? what does web design and platform dependence have in common?

    a site is a site is a site. the technology exists across platforms...that is the point of open-standards.

    xhtml and css are the same on either os.

    i'm not sure if i understand the reasoning behind that. not that i don't agree with you...financially, macs aren't worth the cost in studio settings...since the same work can be done on any platform. but, for web work, a clearly planned, well designed and coded site wouldn't care if you were on pc, mac, linux, unix or some firmware system. as long as a web browser was in use.

    this is why web standards are so important. poorly functioning sites are not an operating system problem they are a designer/developer problem. as long as web designers/developers use outdated markup techniques and poorly written code, then sites will break.

    ah, but that is another tangent entirely.

    :)
