There is a VoiceOver Quick Start guide, should you want to use it, and
you just press the spacebar if you want to use it. Second, if you
don't want to fill out the registration forms, simply bypass them;
having said that, I personally, would recommend filling them out so
that if you need information directly from the company, they can
better serve you with answers to your questions. The other option is
to go to your Mac store and fill out the forms there and the store
will have a record of your transactions, which they will send to
Apple, anyway. Either way, it's better to be safe than sorry. As far
as installation, simply follow the prompts you hear; it's fairly
straightforward, if you are familiar with how other screenreaders
prompts you to install their programs. You can also uninstall the
operating system just as easily, but would you really want to, once
you get comfortable with it? There is context-sensitive help
throughout the operating system, and pressing VO+cammand+f8 will bring
up the VoiceOver Quick Start guide. VO+K brings up Keyboard Practice,
and this is useful if you're not yet comfortable with your keyboard
layout. This list is a great source of information which will help
you to enjoy your Mac experience. And feel comfortable to ask
questions, if you're not sure of something. Take care. Richie

Good evening,
* Disclaimer, I have never used a Mac *
I have a MacBook here that is about a year and a half old Core Duo
2.0ghz. I have the Leopard install CD and would like to completely
reload the operating system.
A few questions:
1. Is there a partition manager on the Leopard CD, or in OS X itself?
2. Once the CD has finished running is there a way to get past all
of the registration screens without completing them?
3. Is there an Installing Leopard with Voiceover tutorial somewhere?
4. Is there a quick reference to get me started with Voiceover and
OS X? Not looking for a long guide here, just a couple of pages to
give me the basics.
I'm sure there will be many more questions to follow.
Thanks in advance,
Everett
