I just got my Mac a couple of days ago.  I have extensive computer knowledge, 
starting on the old Apple II, and moved to MSDOS, not by choice, but out of 
necessity.  The switch to Windows took place, and with it the cost of the 
screen readers came as well.  Every time you changed operating systems, you had 
to buy a new version of the screen reader.  Once I had a problem with a screen 
reader, and had to install a later version.  I didn't have the stupid 
authorization disk, so guess what I had to do? You guessed it, spend more money.
I'm learning the Mac because I don't choose to give more money to assistive 
technology manufacturers.  I believe if a mainstream solution for access 
exists, we should use that.  Only go to the AT companies if no other solution 
exists to complete a particular task.
