Ok, guys. I'm doing ok with Mountain Lion, but I would like to tell y'all about 
a bug in numbers. It's ok if you're using a relatively small file, which 
fortunately, most of mine are. However, below is a part of a message I sent to 
Accessibility at Apple .com. 

Hello. 
I am writing to tell you how Numbers, using the latest update with Mountain 
Lion, is easily crashed using VoiceOver. Here's an easy way to do it, 
especially if you connect a Braille display and have someone, who knows how to 
braille on it puts data into a large Numbers file. 

1. Have VoiceOver on, preferably with a braille display. Mine is a Focus 40, 
but not a Bluetooth. 
2. Start with a file that has about 100 rows in it. 
3. Go a row or two from the bottom. 
4. Insert a row with option down arrow. 
5. With your braille display, start to type. When I do this, I am trapped in 
editing a cell and can't get out without force quitting. 
6. If you use the keyboard instead, it is extremely slow. 

The answer I got back was a thank you for sending it in and they said they 
didn't know when it would be resolved. This is the busy busy I am getting right 
now that I can remember.
