I think it enhances the overall computer experiance. You can run Mac,
Windows and Linux all at the same time on one machine. PC World had a
article that said the fastest Windows machines were Macs.

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
