It boggles the mind, but Mac and Linux users will be unable to watch the NBC Sports / MediaZone webcasts of today’s U.S. Olympic Men’s Marathon Trials and tomorrow’s ING New York City Marathon.
Although some Mac and Linux users were able circumvent the problem in the past, MediaZone has announced on their website that their customer service will not provide support for third-party applications and operating systems.
Man, oh man did NBC and Mediazone drop the ball on this one.
However: Mac and Linux users CAN still follow all the action right here onTheFinalSprint.com!
