Hi, I think there is always trade offs in situations like this. Its more a question of what do you do on your computer, and can the Mac do them. Another thing to consider is money. Although you are paying more up front for a Mac compared to a similar windows PC, if using a payed screen reader or magnification program, you will save in the long term. Thats the Mac advantage of having voiceover and zoom baked into the OS. There is definitely a learning curve when switching to a Mac. If you come across a voiceover user who tells you otherwise, I won't say they are lying but, I will see they are in the minority. lol. If you live near an Apple store, I suggest actually playing with a Mac. Just to get a feel for it.
