Have to totally agree Dan, don't see any similarities between the two

Hi,
VO is far better than Narrater. In fact, I don't even see any
similarities.

To say that VoiceOver is useless is open to interpretation and
skill level. For example, I use VoiceOver for practically all my
every-day applications, including conducting my home businesses,
and have no problem taking of business. And when cross-platform
games are released, I will use the Mac for game playing as well.
I have said many times, there are many list members who use
VoiceOver for everyting under the sun, and are successful. So to
say that VoiceOver is useless--for whom? Please elaborate as to
why you think VoiceOver is useless. Richie Gardenhire, Anchorage,

But Voiceover has the same problem as Narrator has, although

better, it is unusable unless the app uses MAC standard as it were,

thing that saves the day a bit is that more mac apps do the
standard
thing than windows ones.
Apple plays up compatibility, particularly in accessibility, and
provides more robust tools to make apps accesible. I think Apple
has been far more pro-active about access standards than
Microsoft has. Even if apps followed Microsoft access standards,
Narrator would still be mostly useless. Comparing Narrator to
VoiceOver is like comparing cement to chocolate cake.
