Never a problem connecting any of my Apple products to home, office, client, studio or coffee house wi-fi, constant nightmare with my Linux Netbook.<br /><br />I also note that my PC "suit" colleagues have a harder time connecting than I do on occasion.<br /><br />Anecdotal, but there it is. My favourite thing about Apple has always been the effortless wireless connectivity.Tom Megginsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10342481605991016501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879006027819443616.post-48139569532379969172011-07-27T21:43:15.286-04:002011-07-27T21:43:15.286-04:00Unfortunately, it looks like a hoax to me, or else...Unfortunately, it looks like a hoax to me, or else an horrifically-bad piece of tech writing - in real life, connecting to a WiFi hotspot involves about the same number of steps on Mac and Windows. You could write a Mac version of those instructions that takes the user into the control panel and requires him/her to examine every setting.<br /><br />When I chaired XML 2007 in Boston, nearly 100% of our tech-support calls were from MacBook users who couldn't get their computers to work with the WiFi or the projectors. The Linux and Windows laptops just worked. I see the same thing at Bridgehead - almost everyone connects to the WiFi with no problem, but when there's a problem, it's usually an iPad or (less often) a MacBook.davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15194758376900990105noreply@blogger.com
