  Why do people think Macs are better than PCs for creative/artsy stuff?

  Here’s my argument about why we see more Macs in the creative world: 1. From a graphic or web designer, you’d expect someone knowing and caring about usability, simplicity and beauty. 2. Someone knowing and caring about usability, simplicity and beauty likes to have hardware and software that give him usability, simplicity and beauty. 3. Mac computers and Mac OS X are the only hardware and software that can give him usability, simplicity and beauty. I don’t think Mac computers and Mac OS X brings you creativity, I think it’s just logical that someone who cares about design wants to work in a usable, simple and beautiful environment. Personally, I have never seen anything coming from Microsoft that I could have called “design” (except the Zune lineup, but hey, how could you say they’re not iPod ripoffs?). And, I have never seen any PC computer that seemed to have been “designed” before manufacturing (except Sony’s VAIO lineup, but hey, how could you say they’re not Mac ripoffs?).

  @Gundark IE is the only desktop browser that scores less than 85/100 on the Acid3 test It scores 20/100 with IE8 and even less with IE6 and IE7. This single little piece of software is the only reason why we, web designers and developers, need to do “CSS hacks” to have our layouts rendered correctly for everyone.

  @gailcalled You mean my writing is overcomplicated? That’s fine because English is not my primary language and I have the habit of writing complicated sentences in French… sorry, I’ll try to simplify my writing…

  How do you import a font into InDesign?

  What @PupnTaco is true. If you’re on Windows XP, the path to drag and drop your font files manually should be: your Windows partition, usually C: / the WINDOWS folder / the Fonts folders. If you’re on Vista, sorry I never used it and don’t know if the path has changed since XP.
