Hi y'all I have a blind friend who I think is totally blind, at the very least close to it. She's not quite ready yet to get her technology, but she and I have agreed we're going to visit that issue in June when I am going to Houston where she lives. This friend, in my opinion, needs a Mac or an iPad because she can't get training because of you know why and has limited computer skills now. Money is an issue for this lady, so we need to get the best for her for what she can do.
If she gets a Mac of any variety, she can sign up for one to one training and go there once a week if needed. I know there are some issues with this for VoiceOver users, but I think if we have a nice talk with the manager we can get someone who is willing to work with her who is willing to take some extra effort and would consider it fun. Of the two Mac computers, the Mac Mini and the MacBook Air, which one would you guys consider the best for a situation like hers? If she gets an iPad, she would probably need to rely on her blind friends who have iPhones and/or iPads to help her. I don't think this lady can take the group classes Apple offers for IOS devices like the iPhone because I don't think she could keep up, given her current computer knowledge. This lady is in her seventies and has decided to move into the 21st century because she is seeing a need for email. Thanks guys for your opinions on this.
