Good afternoon, the only thing about this morning's presentation that very much concerns me is that it appears that Mac OS Monterey it's very much going to be designed for the M1 chip. This means that if one Hans a Machine based on the Intel chip that things might not work as intended in the beginning. In other words if it's the match that's clearly going to be designed for the new processor. If one is running the owner processor there may be some challenges.
My largest concern however yes how are they going to implement directional sound to match up with hearing aids didn't use that directional information. Because right now hearing aid accessibility definitely has something to be desired. I am curious to see how while this new feature Will help, or hinder those of us who we are, and must use hearing aids? The other thing is I thought I read somewhere, that's safari may get some accessibility improvements. Again Proof must be in the pudding. Another words beta testing buy blame people this year ABC critical. And I certainly will a very much involved in this endeavor because of being deafblind, and also having a written expression disorder," dyslexia of writing”. These are just my thoughts. I hope everyone House OK Great rust of the day. Maurice mines. PS I have beta tested either the phone, or my MacBook or at least the last five or six years. One thing I will never do after last year's fiasco, it's better test new version of watchOS and less Apple pleasures in writing do not remove voiceover from any better. Finally whenever I mention that I am a braille user I get the constant comment but we don't no very many people who use braille. My only thought here is how do they think we read and write? Just some food for thought. Considering that an education and outside of education they still think that less than 20% of us actually read and/or right, are used braille. This is a very sad commentary. > On Jun 7, 2021, at 2:13 PM, Kevin Gibbs <kevj...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Guys, > > I hope this note finds all of you staying safe and healthy and doing well. > I'm’ writing because my wife and I just finished reading the highlights from > the WWDC and were disappointed to see nothing about a new MacBook Pro to go > with the upcoming Mac OS Monterey.
