Default This is your Mac on drugs

The president of SmugMug ( a photo sharing site ) wrote an article about how Macs are set up to not be able to do color management. It's pretty interesting, and looking at the comments, it looks like Macs are shipped with defaults that were how the publishing industry ran 10 to 15 years ago, when Mac was the only way to go, but haven't been updated because of it.

Basically, it means picky web designers need to worry about more than just IE 6.

Windows here, too.

That page is really interesting. Especially the screenshots. I had no idea how messed up the mac's colors are! lol.
