Hi everyone

Just upgraded to bootcamp beta 1.1 and it's quite an easy process. You don't have to start again with reinstalling XP or whatever. All you have to do is download the new bootcamp, install it on the mac, create the updated drivers disk, boot up in windows and insert the disk which will autorun and set up the new drivers. The brilliant thing is that the sound is improved and you can block off the internal speakers if you plug in the headphones. Also, the fn key works so you can get access to the numeric keypad for controlling screenreaders. Bluetooth is still a bit hit and miss as to whether it detects the keyboard or not, but it doesn't matter since you can access everything from the macbook pro itself. V good.

Cheers

Thuy

Hi,
Sounds great. Since I need to run a few Windows programs at times. Also I maybe want to play some accessible games.
Well, then the Imac would be a good choice I think.
Many thanks,
Christian

windows runs okay
jaws works okay
window eyes works okay
hal does not work okay at this point
your windows and alt keys are reversed meaning windows key is alt
alt key is windows
in 1.1 beta write apple key serves as your write click button or
applications key
feel free and ask any other questions.
