Hi Ryan,
Don't mean to intrude here, but you could have used Microsoft Office
for Mac, it contains Excel, PowerPoint, Word, and a few other programs.
I love my Mac, but i will admit, some programs and utilities are
easier to find in the windows world, but even so, i'm hanging with my
Mac.

Blindtech, you seem to think that the Mac is the perfect computer
that can replace PC's for everything, so let me ask you a
question. What accessible spreadsheet is there for the Mac? I'm
taking an advanced statistics class and I had to use Excel for a
few assignments. Therefore, I had to use my Windows laptop for
that. That is, unless I'm off base and there is an accessible
alternative for the Mac. If so, please enlighten me. If not, I
rest my case. You really shouldn't get defensive every time
somebody doesn't want to use your computer of choice.

I can't believe you would take an on air personality as something to

My business registered in the state of arizona, The BlindTechs
Network is a business which teaches blind persons how to use their
computers, I do support and training, and system installs. This is
why I take this so serious.

Sorry. I'm not buying it. Gabe. You have called in to many internet
radio stations and you come across exactly the same way as you did
in your emails. So unfortunately, that doesn't fly. I make my
living off macs too, as a singer/songwriter/producer, and I too am
waiting around for the accessibility to get better with Vo. Riddle
me this. Why can't we use Garage band, Pro Tools, Logic, Q Bass,
etc? Why the hell am I stuck in O S 9 with P T 5.2.1, while my
sighted counterparts are at 7? Is that accessibility? I should say
not. So yes. In a sense, those of us who make a living using our
macs are indeed waiting around for Vo accessibility to improve.
