MY SENTIMENTS EXACTLY!

Articles like that make me think there's something just a bit deeper

publication, you
find that they are taken up with the big screen readers. I wonder if
Freedom
Science Fiction, and such companies are paying AFB for that ad
space? Apple
is obviously not, so it is my belief that the narrow-mindedness of
AFB's
staff hinges on money. I could be wrong, but why else would they be so
brutal on a company who is obviously trying to help the blind?
Granted, they
don't put their product through enough beta testing, and I'd be
willing to
bet that the blind developers they have working for them are few, but
they're trying! I applaud them for their efforts. I was an early
adopter of
the Intell platform of Apple's. In fact, I still use my original
iMac from
time to time, but the reason it, and my Macbook, and all my future
computers
were, and will be purchased from Apple is because it's a mainstream
company
that's trying. I appreciate the effort. They didn't have to!
