Oh, so have I. For defensible technical reasons, even. But these days, hating apple, for most, is not about technical limitations, or even the smug douchiness of Appletards, so much as Apple has become so popular it's not popular any more. It's just trendy to hate on Apple.

I find that I can't read web pages, hardly any of them, without zooming the browser in, and that's on a 22" monitor at 1280 x 1024. I also find that most web sites, with all the various wigits all over the place, virtually all of them ads, are actively hostile to people with weak vision who zoom in. Many ads don't resize, and will notstay in the same relative place, so they end up covering the actual content to the point where the web site is literally unusable.
