You know, that's a pretty poor attitude. I for one responded and even
stated your opinions are yours and I didn't pick you apart for your
opinions. I think several including myself simply stated that in fact
we didn't have a problem. However, since you seem to not be overly
happy with the Mac or at least VoiceOver, what made you choose one? I
believe you said something about the technology and if so, what
technology are to or do you find most appealing. I don't think most
folks were beatting you up over your comments, but are asking fair
questions and stating they haven't had any problems with that
particular site. I had no problems navigating it myself. True, VO
isn't perfect, anyone will agree to that, but neither was the first
windows-based screen readers in their first few years on the market.
Its not just agreeing with you that there are problems, but you made a
lot of statements that were basically all negative, but gave no real
specific and once asked, you get defensive. That's not helping your
cause if you really were looking for help.
Also, btw, its not free, you pay for VO and all the other applications
included in the cost of the Mac. Just because you didn't pay $1,000 or
$1,500 for the screen reader, doesn't mean its not worth its weight in
gold.

As dane pointed out, it's only happening to some people on some
sites. Whatever is causing it isn't isolatable. forget I brought all
this up it seems like all the die-hard VO users will consider my
views a waist of time anyways.
Thanks to Dane and others for at least acknowledging the problems
instead of expecting us all to sit there and say how wonderful it
all is because it's free.
