Why are Mac's different?
Macintosh use a different operating system to PC's. Mac's are used mainly by designers due to their simplicity and power with regard to print based work. Many home users prefer the Mac to the PC for these reasons.
The Browser and colour palette on a MAC is slightly different to those on a PC and as such, your website may look slightly different. Don't worry, the site will still work the same way.
