I know. Unfortunately, it is a school Macbook, and even if it supports 10.9, the upgrade is controlled by the school. I could tell the TVI to suggest an upgrade, but the student is low-vision and only just getting used to using Voiceover. I'd hate to change the interface she is just starting to become familiar with and have her move backward. She will never need to be a VO power user; she uses it more as a crutch when print is too small or she loses the mouse. She could be more efficient with it than she can with the vision she has, but making her see that isn't my job. :D So unless there are big advantages to upgrading in terms of low vision/VO (and there may well be - I only really started using a Mac with 10.8) upgrading might hurt at this point. Then again, it might be a great idea which should really help, I really don't know. Any thoughts on this? On Mar 28, 2014, at 1:40 PM, Anne Robertson <[email protected]> wrote:
