What about Vista and Jaws 9? I don't remember that being brought up. I'd be
curious to know just how that works. Just as a quick side question. Don't
you guys think that putting Windows on a MAC kind of ruins the fun of having
one?

Oo!   Oo!
Who delurked me?

Blinking in bright light and gulping rather nervously.

Um, right, well I have - sort of.
What I mean is my son has set my mac book up so I can dual boot, if I  
do nothing it goes in to, spit, windows.   If I hit option key it goes  
to, sigh, leopard and voice over.

The sad thing is I know nothing other than I can at last free myself  
from the dark lord of Seattle and have the tools to defeat the dark  
arts.

Here's a thing though my son is a software architect who uses  a mac  
to do his job and has been encouraging me to dump microsludge for a  
while now.   He works for a mapping solutions company here in the U.K.  
called multimap.com and has been active in web accessibility on my and  
other blind computer users behalf for some years now.   He is very  
involved in web 2.0 here in the U.K. but when I can blackmail him in  
to doing something for his dear old Dad he is frightfully good about  
it, currently he is engaged in reverse engineering a tool for reading  
talking newspapers with his pearl script skills and hopefully I will  
be able to make this available to other users of T.N.A.U.K  
publications in the U.K. soon.

Oh dear I do seem to have gone on rather a lot, forgive a garrulous  
old fool who really prefers lurking in the background.

Cheers
