As far as I can see, restricting access to a "certain" type of
browser/video viewer is the same as only having steps into a public
place or other obstacles, your restricting access to those who are less
fortunate, wether its monetary or physical.

Is the Apple MAC OS-X running a UNiX derivative and not a MS-windows
platform as such, then those who chose those system are now
disadvantaged.

All this should be seen in the same light as for special parking spaces
and accessability ramps, instead of physical accessability, its
electronic access.

Ok, I'll shut up now for the next few months :P
