I have a friend, age 75, who is totally blind and a Windows/Jaws failure. I have recommended he switch to a Mac but want to make reasonable suggestions as to what he should buy.
I am leaning twards a Mac Mini with a full size bluetooth keyboard with NumPad and a wired mouse. Also, he will need a monitor for when his wife needs to help him out. What do the rest of you mini users have. Do you also add a USB DVD player? Thanks for your advise. He will be happy if he could just download NLS books from the BARD site without having to ask his wife for help. I, myself, have an 21 Inch IMac that I have had for four years. I got my first Mac, the Mac Plus, in 1985 when I had more usable vision and could read the screen with an 8x magnifying lens. The good old days when we thought one megabyte of RAM was amazing. I did say mega and not giga. Tom -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
