On a machine that expensive? You are kidding. Sounds like another Apple s**** up to me. Sheeesh . . .
G4/450 plus 15.1" TFI (in case you are wondering)
How am I going to buy any Macintosh products from a company that can't make a site that looks good on a Mac?
Using Mac IE5 with the resolution 'fixed', the text is un-readable. Why am I going to give them money if they clearly don't care about people visiting their site with a Macintosh?
Their web folks need a clue.
Come on! It's not hard!
Most keyboards on notebooks leave slight scuff marks. Its not an apple s**** up. These marks come off if you clean the screen well and dont appear if you put a thin sheet of soft material over the keyboard when you have the lid shut.
I don't think it's the web folks that needs a clue.
I'm using IE 5 mac also, and the site is perfectly readable for me. if you've screwed up your IE font settings, that's not something you can hold against the developers.

So it was done on purpose? Right.
"These marks come off if you clean the screen well"

Personally, I like to clean my screen (15.1" Apple flat screen) as little as possible for fear of damaging it, whilst you are happy to clean it on a what daily, hourly basis to get rid of what I would consider annoying smudge marks? And that's not a srew up? Right.
"...and dont appear if you put a thin sheet of soft material over the keyboard when you have the lid shut."

Yes, but why should you have to? And that's not a s**** up?
So, why not just put cling film over it? Keeps it nice and fresh too. Sheesh.

Learn to set up the resolution in IE5 properly, i.e. click on "Resolution" in "Language/Fonts" in "Internet Explorer Preferences" and set the resolution with the aid of a ruler.
Works a treat. The Apple will look o.k., and, more to the point, so will all other sites.

Isn't there anyone who can make s*** cases for the power people any more? Can anyone else create product appeal like Apple? How about a case that COMES with a keyboard cover for those keyboard marks on the mega-wide screen? How about some serious THOUGHT when designing some of these things? . . not just "trying to make a buck on the coat tails of Apple" . . . C'mon people . . .
