This WiFi instructional brochure from McDonald's really shows the complexity difference between Windows and Mac OS X computers when it comes to networking.
The whole left and center panels of the brochure are for the various flavors of Windows. You have to configure everything.
Those three little steps that grandma could do on the right (actually it's two because they padded the list with an instruction to turn networking on, which is the default) are for Mac OS X.
1) Select "McDonald's Free WiFi" from the list of available networks.
2) Open your web browser.
Macs are the easiest computers to network, period. That's because they've been doing it since the beginning, way before the web came around. It's in their DNA, so to speak.
