I'm thinking as a "new" VO user pressing 2 KeyBoard Keys (i.e., COM & Space Bar) as opposed to pressing 3 KeyBoard Keys (i.e., CRTL+OPT+Space Bar).

"SpotLight" is as I recall is a way to search the "Mac OSX" for any program/application and Launch it similar to how one would do the same on a PC using Windows KeyBoard Key to launch the search bar on a Windows PC (i.e., Windows 7 PC).

I guess I'm WRONG as "SpotLight Search" being the simplest way to search Mac OSX. What can I say, I'm only a NEW VO (i.e., VoiceOver) user myself. I presumed it would be easier to press Less KeyBoard Keys to perform the same Function, but I Stand Corrected.

I don't really think your method is faster. You go to the dock, type m or ma and mail is there; do enter or vo-space. I've never done this other method myself but I suppose it's all about what one is used to; you always think what you are used to doing is fastest.

I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf.
I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper
thrown in the trash!
Then God gave me a new heart and life:
His joy for my despairing tears!
And now, every day:
"This I call to mind,
and therefore I have hope:
The steadfast love of the Lord
never ceases;
his mercies never come to an end;
they are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness."
(Lamentations 3:21-23 ESV)
