William, The mac does make a sound every time it starts, so there is that queue so you can know when to hold down certain commands to boot from CD's, external drives, etc. I don't see any need to make another VO command, especially since there's the startup disc option in system Preferences.

Hello, Since Apple has introduced install apps and os-updates from the internet, we don't need a dvd. This is good but , gives sometimes problems about accessibility. I mean: we can't decide before restart, with vo-support, what to do after reboot. We also can't hear when it's time to press the letter since there is no dvd turning around. If I understand well, in some situations , we have to chose after booting up what we want to do: booting the normal system, booting the install packages and perhaps more options. Of course , voiceover can't work on that moment. So, it should be nice that we can decide what to do before rebooting. A possible way of working: In stead off choosing reboot, we chose a new vo-command e.g. command+option+escape and there we have the choices what to do after reboot. What do you think about this?
