Hi,

On the other hand a stable Windows xP machine is much more common now than with Windows98 or even worse Windows95. Windows 7 seems to be even more stable than xp.

Still the Macs really have a boot time I have never seem matched on a Windows system, and is instant ready after login, very much unlike my XP machine that uses about 2 extra minutes to load applications. This is only tolerable because hybernation works on that pc.

Teresa,

as I've pointed out, gone are the days of the blue screen of death on a PC. I never have application crashes which bring down the whole machine, haven't
done so for many years now.

this is purely about navigation with a Mac.

Hi, Neil,

I'm commenting before I read the other replies, so that I can give you my
own response to what you've written.

First, you can use QuickNav in Voiceover, which will give you most
screen-reader commands with two fingers on one hand.

Secondly, in my experience, when one application freezes on the Mac, this
doesn't take down the entire session and cause a blue screen. It's only
necessary to force-quit the misbehaving application ancd stay in the
desktop. I've gone for weeks without restarting the desktop, much less
restarting the computer. I have never done this on Windows. This, to me, is
a big plus.

Teresa
