It really wasn't that long ago, but wow, it's hard to imagine life
before Leopard. :) I'll have to google around, but I remember seeing
a list of VoiceOver changes in Leopard. Although it wouldn't be a
perfect way to do this, that list would show you the features you
wouldn't have. Obviously, I'm not familiar with your situation and
comfort level, but given how much money your employer has saved by not
needing to purchase assistive software, you might be able to convince
them to upgrade one of their Macs to Leopard. After all, the cost
isn't that great and they're planning to do it anyway. Depending on
your employer, they may be receptive to this -- they don't have to buy
a screen reader, they get you using their machine VS your laptop and
you get the system you're already familiar with.
I'll send that list soon as I can find it.

Hi Everyone,
Until now I have been hooking my macbook up to the network at work
(I got permission to do this because it saved my employer shelling
ut tuns of money for jaws etc) Now, our graphics department has an
extra Imac desktop which is running tiger and my employer would like
me to use this computer instead of hooking my laptop up to the system.
My question is how different is voiceover on tiger from voiceover on
Leopard? Will I have the same functionality with the earlier
version of VO? Eventually we are going to upgrade our macs to
leopard, but this hasn't happened yet so I will need to use tiger
for a bit.
Thanks for any tips anyone can give.
