I agree with that. I have done 10 times as much as I could do on
Windows in 4 months of using the Mac. Just about every software I have
used has been accessible through the menus, GUI or both. I wonder what
conversations that FS or JAWS users have had with Apple in this
regards? Probably none

I completely disagree with the action that NFB is taking! While I've
only had my Mac for almost a weak now, I hate the NFB not attempting
to even use a bloody Mac and see if it is accessible. They just take
jaws through it's paces because they claim that it's the number one
screen reader on the planet. I'm sorry, but in terms of stabibility,
learning, etc, I think VoiceOver is the now number one screen
reader. Perhaps if Microsoft would take the steps that Apple takes,
jaws won't be needed If people are willing to take at least two days
out of there lives they could easily learn VoiceOver. I started
downloading skype the first time I got my hands on this baby, so
it's not like it's all that hard. VoiceOver is so easy your
grandmother could use it without reading the manual. I haven't read
the quick start tutorial yet and I feel that I still have a lot to
learn, but Apple in my oppinion is way ahead of Microsoft.
That's my oppinion on the issue.
