Hi,
I think you are quite right. In fact, I am confident that I can take a
Mac class, which is something I would never do under Windows anymore,
as I can follow the class on the Mac so much easier.
Thanks foerliasetning,

Vic, I think the point your missing is that how a sighted person
works with the cursor while editing verses how a blind person using
a screen reader uses the cursor is different and that should not be
the case. The way both sighted and non-sighted folks perform the
same task on the Mac is not different. THis is how it really should
be. You should be able to edit a document in the same manner all be
it with the keyboard verses the mouse. Understanding where that
cursor is in relation to the words or characters will help when you
are communicating possibly with a sighted colleague.
This is at least how I'm interpreting this thread. It's not saying
that one OS does it right or wrong, it's the screen readers I gather
on the windows platform that present it incorrectly. However, if I
interpreted the facts inaccurately, I have no doubt someone will
correct me.

Hey guys,
I hear you all, Mac fans, and this is awsome that you love this OS.
Just FYI, I love 'em all!
But please be careful when you make statements like "this is the
way it should be". It was very constructive to hear explanations on
how cursor works on the Mac and let's leave it at that. I'd simply
say, this is the way it is...
Thanks,
Vic
