Cnet - Please Fry Apple for this!!!
by frobroj - 8/1/08 3:18 PMI also have a screen shot but it appears that Apple is not supporting firefox on linux with their MobileMe product. Funny thing is that if I use a nice little plugin called "User Agent"(Thanks Chris Pederick!!!) on my Ubuntu box then I can spoof mobile me and tell it I am running firefox on windows. And low and behold Mobile Me works just fine. Please ask publicly why(especially when their own os is based on open source) would they intentionally block linux and open source users from this service? You would think they would make open source first on their list(especially since it is so similar to their BSD core. And probably easy to port to).
Sincerely,
Ticked Off!!
idea why
by repete_smile - 8/1/08 7:48 PM In reply to: Cnet - Please Fry Apple for this!!! by frobrojApple wants to block all competing os. they can't block windows since they have a huge market share, if they blocked windows they're mobileme service wont have enough customers to be profitable. Apple like blocking things and locking up users(e.g. the iPhone is locked, only apple can make computers compatible with Mac OS)
