So far this week I've found Costco can't support a Mac, especially if you use the store locator. Jo-Ann craft store won't let you check out. Home depot, which used to be good is all to cock now and some other hardware store is just at a loss. Nothing works.
When are these guys going to wise up?
Today I drove 30 odd miles to a Jo Ann store which did not honor the discounts they advertised and when I got home I found, I could buy the whole shabang, including shipping, on the net, for $25.00 cheaper. except for the fact I'm working on a Mac and so couldn't check out. I can call tomorrow.
My thoughts are, sack your DF programmers. Get a guy/gal who knows the NOW computer world. Not evryone is on a PC and if your web designer is limited to working with PCs, you're losing more business than you want to know.
You live in California, it's like living in Morocco, you pay full price only after you've made your second set of millions. lol
I think it depnds which browser you are using. Try
Firefox instead of Safari.
You should meet my husband, he thinks the same, myself I find Firefox illogical, mind I only used it in Beta. Maybe I should try it again, but moving everything roll
I tried the Costco website with Safari and it worked a treat. I didn't buy anything though, who needs a 4 years supply of bog roll or half a cow in your freezer.
No idea, I just want a Delonghi retro style toaster oven cos in a moment of bravado I gave mine to the thrift shop. sad

I seem to have no trouble whatsoever internet shopping lately

In the real computing world Mac's are little more than arty toys, They look pretty but most of the software I use will not even run on a mac.
I find trouble with uncertified shopping carts. Mac hates you shopping with unregistered peoples.
As to arty toys, we have experience of both pcs and macs. I'd go with a mac anyday and so would him indoors. smile

What a load...

"Real Computing"....

I now run Windoze XP with Parallels on my Intel Core2 Duo 2.6d GHZ Macbook Pro with 4G of RAM without any issues what so ever. (The only reason I bought that software was so I could update the firmware in my SE phone!
