mac with voice over, you may find those helpful, you can find them at www.blindcooltech.com

Hi Damon,
There are many websites where you can find indepth information on
the use of Voiceover on the Mac. Here are a few. Others on the list
are much more knowledgeable and will certainly give you more help
than I am able to at the moment. I've only been using Voiceover for
7 months or so.
Firstly, Tim Kilburn on the list has a very helpful website:
http://homepage.mac.com/kilburns/voiceover/itunes7.html
I have given you here the URL for the Itunes page on Ti's website
but from there, you will be able to find other links. I can't find
Tim's hope page address off hand.
Two more websites:
www.screenlessswitchers.com
www.lioncourt.com
As for reading PDF files, Mac OS has a programme called Preview
which is accessible and it is included with your computer. It works
pretty well.
Hope this will help a little.
With best wishes
Simon

OK, I bought a macbook pro and have a mini. The macbook pro already
has win
xp on it as well as os 10.5.3. I have the windows side well covered,
naturally, but I want some pointers on how to get started with the
mac side.
I know voice over to a basic degree. I would like to know
everything I can
about doing the following:
messengers on the mac. What works best for aol and windows messenger
web browsing, best place to go to learn how to read in html areas
reading pdf documents.
playing music over a network, i.e. music stored on a shared hard
drive on a
windows box
basic operating system operation, i.e. burning CDs, moving, copying
files,
etc.
Whatever else you can pint me to that will give me a push in the
right
direction.
I am a native windows user. I don't plan on dumping windows anytime
soon,
but I do want to learn the Mac and use it. My plans for the mac
mini were to
use it for shoutcast radio streaming, but again, I do want to do
email,
browsing, etc. The macbook pro is mainly for work, but I also want
to do
music related stuff with software instruments, recording and the
like. Any
pushes in the right direction will help. i am a techie geek kind of
person,
so don't need a ton of hand holding, just point me to documentation
and
keyboard shortcuts and I'll figure it out.
