Hello Chris,
A very good reason for getting a Mac, especially once Leopard is
released, would be that a Mac is much better value than any other
make of computer. After all, it comes with the current Mac OS, and
you can put Windows on it if you like. It's like having all possible
kinds of computer in one. It is also better made than most other
computers and will last much longer. We have a desktop Mac, a
Sawtooth G4 for those who are interested, which is 7 years old and
running the latest version of Tiger.
Of course, this is just my opinion; but it is an informed opinion
after looking at current prices for other PCs.

Hi all, well if the BrailleNote is listed then I may re-consider my
decision on getting a mac thanks to Leopard, smiles. You see, in my
situation, I want to use my BrailleNote as a Braille display, as
well as notetaking, and the only way to do this, at the moment I
believe, is through Windows and a compatible Screen Reader (JAWS in
my case), so it'll be nice if Leopard supports this out of the box.
Don't worry, I'm not going to unsubscribe simply because I'm not
interested. I'm really interested, however due to my current
situation I don't really see a reason for getting a mac right now.

That is pretty much Apple's policy regarding which braille
displays are supported. However, they have reassured me that we
will know when the information is released, just before shipment
of Leopard. Richie Gardenhire, Anchorage, Alaska.
