Hummm> I seem to be missing some of this thread. One person asks about a
Latex list and the other continues a conversion that started somewhere else
about learning latex for tables. I must admit that I am on this list
primarily for information about what works with voiceover, since I haven't
brought myself to get a Mac yet. Does Latex automatically come with Tiger
and therefore works right out of the box with Voiceover? I really wish
Leopard would hurry up and come out as I hear there are vast improvements
and there are things that it will have that will bring me closer to
switching over. The big stand-out thing now is simply that one doesn't need
sighted assistance to set it up and it's not always crashing like the
Windows screen readers. I am in Texas and we're Jaws country out here, so
if you even whisper about maybe needing a mac for something like school,
it's simply no go, so if you want one, better save those nickels and dimes.
Do any of you use your Mac exclusively and have ditches your windows
machines altogether or is it still a combination of the two?

It is also hard for me to imagine why anyone would learn latex just for
tables. Personally I use it to write pretty much everything in college.
TeXShop by itself fulfilles the work of MS Word, some of Excel, and even
powerpoint. Yes latex is the best thing. I think everyone should use it
and drop these silly "what you see is what you get" processors
altogether. If the world were as I imagine it, everyone would change
over to latex.
