| Article: [senit] Safari on PC | |
|
From: "Ira David Socol" <socolira at msu.edu> >as with most Apple > products - accessibility is an afterthought, if thought > of at all. Whilst I agree that Firefox is a more accessible browser than Safari (if slower) I must say that your last sentence is complete nonsense. Apple have always striven to make their products very user friendly. This benefits everyone regardless of your 'ability'. A 'typical SEN' student (if there is such a thing) finds 'Pages' easier to use than 'Word' but then so would a 'non SEN' (again if there is such a thing) user. There are a number of features built into the OS which are specifically designed to increase accessibility. I use both Macs and PCs (though modern Macs are PCs, the main difference being that the are capable of running OSX) and you couldn't really persuade me that windows is more accessible other than in the sense that there is a wider selection of software available on the Windows platform.
