If you've got the money. The market is at work. For the money I have
paid for my Mac I have a dang good product and nary a crash. It meats
my needs. Again, that is the marketplace at work.

That's a perfectly good question for a blind student thinking about
switching to the mac. Nowadays, if you're a student you need to be
able to do things such as read Powerpoint documents.

Subject: [nabs-l] Mac and VoiceOver
I'm considering buying a macbook and am looking for opinions on its
usability for a totally blind user. I realize that Mac OS has a
built-in screen reader, but quick google searches aren't providing
much more information than the fact that VoiceOver exists and
that it
seems to be a fairly impressive product. This is fine, but I'd like
more detail on it's day-to-day usage, preferably from users or
students who have made the switch from Windows and Jaws to using a
macbook for their everyday computer use. All in all, what I'm
trying
to figure out is If it's worth seriously considering and making a
switch, Or is it still a toy, impressive but still not up to Jaws
and
windows standards? Feel free to write me on or off list with any
comments or thoughts.
