Make the jump, it is worth it. From basic and complex things the Mac
is better. I was and with the exception of having to teach Windows I
converted after 13 years of Windows.

John,
Thanks for posting this. I'm passing it along to my husband, who
is very
interested in Leopard. I've used the mac a bit, but just can't
make myself
take the total plunge. Now, if we can figure out a way to have
k1000 work
on the mac, then it might be a different story. I don't know
enough yet
about the fusion or vm software to do it.
Cait
I'm *not* bossy, I just have much better ideas!

Subject: For new or potential blind Mac users
Hi Folks,
I've seen a number of new Mac VoiceOver users and some
contemplating trying or switching to the Mac on the VoiceOver and Mac
user lists over the last few months. This has prompted me to think
about my experiences as a VoiceOver user when I first learned the
Mac. Thus, with the kindness of Josh, I have written an article
describing my experiences he has posted on the Lioncourt website.
Note that my effort is not an attempt at a technical manual or a
tutorial of any kind, but only my observations and reactions to my
experience and what were important things I learned or was told that
helped me along during the learning process. My hope is that it will
provide encouragement to the new user and a little nudge to the
potential switcher. The direct link is,
