Honestly I like the refreshabraille from APH. it is only 18 cells but reads pretty fast and comfortably. Don't forget it is about $1,000 cheaper too.

Has anyone kno how feels like if it's portable? I haven't felt one but I've heard it's like reading Braille on regular paper is that true? I'm taking a couple courses requiring extensive reading and especially editing in Spanish. I plan on taking French too and think Braille will help me learn another language. can I use it with lion on the mbp? Actually the state is provitamins me with one in addition to other software like iris pro. Has anyone used read iris pro? What are the comparisons between KurtzWeil 1000? Thank you very much.

I am concerned that when it comes to setting up windows vo will stop speaking. Still hoping to hear some feedback for installing xp on lion. Thanks for all your help! Ioana Cody <[email protected]> Sep 23 04:26PM -0400 ^ <#digest_top> As far as installing xp on lion I'm doubting it will work, but then again, I will say I've installed Vista, which is officially unsupported by apple now, so that means xp will be unsupported as well. However this doesn't mean it will not work, because it might but you'r going to have to find drivers, which apple will not support, unless you've got a leopard or snow leopard disk and upgraded to lion, that might work. Voiceover will not speak during the windows install, so you will need an unattended setup, or sighted help.

I have employees, and right now I am using Numbers which is not specifically for that. Luckily, I have experience with calculating employment taxes, but it would be faster to use a payroll program because the computer could automatically put in withholding.

It has over 50 user accounts now, but the machine is very old, and some day sooner or later, I will have to replace it. Do I need ftp server software on a mac, or is it already built in? If it is built in, can it have separate user accounts, so that I don't have to create each one in users and groups, but rather inside the server software itself so that accounts are local there? Can I use an alternative port instead of 21? Are there any security risks, more than running an ftp server program under windows on the lan? Very interested. Paul. Chris Blouch <[email protected]> Sep 23 02:05PM -0400 ^ <#digest_top> There is a perfectly serviceable FTP server built into osx. Because osx is unix underneath you might be able to set up FTP accounts outside the usual users preference pane, but why? Just add the users via the GUI in the usual way and be done. I should point out that I pretty much stick with Afro as is generally recommended these days. Otherwise FTP is just as risky under osx as any other is. If you want to run FTP on another port you might have to poke under the hood to tweak some configuration files but I haven't googled that. Last I checked FTP requires a whole range of ports to be opened as it shifts connections around, making firewalls into Swiss cheese. Might be time to reconsider sftp.

I thought that I had heard somewhere that xp isn't supported any longer under lion. Could this be the problem; the windows seven works better than xp under lion?

I'm not sure this is true. I was running fusion 3 with window-eyes. I downloaded and installed fusion four and it asked me if I wanted to upgrade. I did and also installed the tools. I am currently using window-eyes on my new fusion four without any issues at all except for a bit of sluggishness. Otherwise, it works just as fusion 3 did for me. Am I missing something in your message? Thanks. On Sep 20, 2011, at 6:59 AM, Robert Carter wrote: Paul Henrichsen <[email protected]> Sep 23 09:48AM -0700 ^ <#digest_top> Hi, Robert. I was concerned that I might get a video intercept problem when upgrading to fusion four, but window eyes didn't give me any problem at all. I was sure I would have to reinstall it, but I didn't.

Why upgrade if you aren't going to upgrade completely? I guess I should state that I am using an iMac. But I'm not having any issues with fusion 4 other than the fact that they took out the ability to launch it automatically when opening it from the doc. With version 3, windows seven could be made to launch automatically. This doesn't appear to be available in fusion 4. You need to vo spacebar on the windows seven button.
