A picture paints a thousand words--especially if that picture shows overlapping windows in Vista and XP sprinkled with references to "DNS servers" and Internet protocols.
The Twitpic post is a prickly reminder of the ghosts of Windows past. In the photo (below), McDonald's makes a valiant effort to help hapless owners of laptops runningWindows Vista or XP make a Wi-Fi connection in its restaurants. Inadvertently, the photo also makes a statement on the complexity of Windows versus Apple'sMac.
As is immediately apparent, the pamphlet (see photo below) shows the connection to a Mac with OS X as a snap.
McDonald's step-by-step guide for customers who 'need more help' to make a Wi-Fi connection makes a graphic statement about Windows vs. Mac.

It's not clear how dated this pamphlet is, though AT&T currently has a multi-step Windows XP tutorial on its Web site too that actually makes the McDonald's pamphlet seem positively pithy.
Needless to say, most Windows users are not going to need this kind of step-by-step setup, especially with Windows 7.
