Hi Alfredo Thanks for your E-mail.
I'll try and answer your questions. > How much would you pay (regardless of where you live) for a one hour > session on basic to advance apple computer skills with voice over? I do not have an answer for that as I do not live in the US. Also, if you were to charge, in what form would you charge, as handling lots of currancies may be fairly difficult as 25 dollars may be a lot for others who live else where in the world as the rates of the dollar vary from day to day. I'm not saying I'd not pay, I would, as long as I could afford it. > > What is your age? I'm 41. > What part of the world, or United States do you live? I live in the UK. > Was it difficult for you to learn the apple computer screen reader? I consider myself a beginner. > How do you think you would have learned faster or more efficiently? To start with, I have had a very ggood friend to get me started. He spent a week with me teaching me as much as he could. I would not have progressed so much without his care, patients and persistance of helping me and his faith in me. > Do you think that you could have learned the apple OS with voice over > as easily as you did jaws or window eyes, if you had not had these > screen readers? I use jaws every day in my current job. I also usejaws with windows 7 on my mac book pro as I feel that both compliment each other. I think Voice over is much easier than jaws but not always consistent. I do not like Windoweyes as I tried learning it once but did not get on with it. If I were to learn a particular screenreader again, I'dpick voice over. > Was it hard for you, economically, to buy the mac? I bought the Mac whilst I was in the United States. It wasn't difficult as I'd planned for it and had made up my mind before I left that this was the next challenge in my life. I love gadgets! > How did you learn about the Mac voice over screen reader? One of my family uses Voice Over and I have a friend (the same) who uses voice over. I hope my answers are all right.
