Chanel, Are you asking if you should stop using your current MAC and buy a new one simply because the warranty has expired? Wouldn't that be like buying a new car simply because the floor mats were dirty, or because the ash trays were full?
Maybe I'm missing the point here. ----- Original Message ----- From: Chenelle Hancock To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, April 07, 2013 5:50 PM Subject: Mack question: Hello everyone, it's been a while since i have posted anything on the list.

Strange FTP problem [1 Update] Serious question about Mac vs. Windows Jamie Pauls <[email protected]> Apr 07 01:07PM -0500 I find VoiceOver to be a very robust screen reader. I think you will fine that the only accessibility issues you have will be with specific applications. About the only area where there seems to be a consensus is in office productivity. Microsoft office and windows screen readers continue to have a definite edge there. I am hopeful that this will not always be the case. VoiceOver is quite powerful as a screen reader and serves its operating system quite adequately, in my opinion. Sent from my iPhone Eugenia Firth <[email protected]> Apr 07 04:12PM -0500 Hi Shannon and Kelly In my opinion, voiceover is a serious screen reader which is a serious contender with window was in Jaws. Having said that, I think that it's not voiceover that's limited, it's the applications which your work with it or don't, depending on whether of the developer Roos contacted Apple for the information they needed to make it work. This also assumes that they thought of us in the first place. There are some blind people these days that have really no useful windows and Leslie want it. iPhone one could do without it forever.

Not to mention in my oppinion itunes and vo work much better than itunes and jaws or nvda. I did try to use nvda full time just before I switched but the tts didn't sound right not when using sapi. I also think as time goes on there will be more and more accessible programmes for the mac. Blessings! Maria Joe and loving guide Karly.

Any ideas? • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: [email protected] • My home page: • http://MarkBurningHawk.net/ Selling my IPhone 4S "Chris Gilland" <[email protected]> Apr 07 04:28PM -0400 I have an IPhone 4S black 16GB locked to the AT&T carrier, non-jailbroken, and never once has been, which was bought in February of 2011. This hone is in 100% tip-top mint condition, not a single scratch or crack on it. It never even once has ever been dropped. It is running the latest I O S 6.1.3. I have all the cables, as well as the electrical receptacle charging cube, and even still have the original earbuds. Though I love this phone, I have upgraded last January to an IPhone 5 black 64GB, so I no longer am in the need for this phone. I'm asking $200.00. Please note as a few people have asked me this already, so I want to make this very clear from the get-go. No, I will not accept multiple installment payments. I must receive the payment in full all at once, and only will ship to the states, sorry Canadian residents. The $200 does include shipping. If you are an IPhone Newby, I even can have it set when you get it for Voiceover already to be enabled, although it's easy enough to do yourself. I know this list is for Mac users, however, upon request, I will even for an additional dollar, bringing your total to $201.00, just to cover the cost of the blank media, burn you a copy of the ITunes installer for windows and will include the disc in a neatly braille labeled sleeve. Please note that this IPhone is locked, and only will work on the AT&T network. It will not work on Verizon, Sprint, or any of the like. Please contact me off list if interested. I accept check, money order, or preferably PayPal. Please do not make any payment until you and I first discuss the sale, as I need to be sure you know what e-mail address to PayPal the money to for one thing. Plus, I'll need to get the address you'd like it shipped. You may contact me off list at: [email protected] Yes, I understand that isn't the e-mail address I'm writing you all from right now. that is my personal/work address I just gave you above, which I use for non-list matters. Also, you may call me at: 704-256-0067, extension 401. Thank you kindly, and have yourself a delightful day. Chris.

Gallegos" <[email protected]> Apr 07 12:30PM -0500 Hello all. Thank you for all the suggestions and congratulations on the Mac. I am not giving up windows or anything like that. In fact because I do access training of technology is best to know a little bit about all different types of systems. This way I can best meet needs of clients we need specific types of training. There are commonalities between each operating system, like copy cut paste editing and the like. However each has any qualities which might be suited better for one type of person compared to another. This is my main reason for joining the Mac community. --- Sent from Raul's iPhone - (832) 554-7285. Please excuse any dictation or auto complete errors. Kawal Gucukoglu <[email protected]> Apr 07 07:37PM +0100 You could always put Windows on your new Mac virtually and then you'd have one less computer but have two computers in the one box. Teresa Cochran <[email protected]> Apr 07 12:27PM -0700 Hi, Raul, LOL Have fun with the Mac. I had a lot of fun learning a new OS and screen-reader from scratch. I got my Mac Mini almost exactly three years ago, and I was like a kid with a new birthday toy. I found it easy enough that I began downloading software the day after I had it up and running. There was the time early on when I blanked out on the keystroke for getting to the menus, but I tried VO-m out of the blue and it worked. It's quite intuitive that way. :) Enjoy, Teresa Joe Paton <[email protected]> Apr 07 01:16PM -0700 and all your eggs in one basket!! smile.. Joe Joe Paton VM Fusion and Windows 7 Angus MacKinnon <[email protected]> Apr 07 01:06PM -0700 For a while now I had a dual boot between Mountain Lion and Windows 7. I split my 256GB HDD into two partitions. A 128GB Partition for Windows 7 and a 128 GB partition for Mountain Lion. I recently bought VM Fusion 5 Pro. Ho can I add the Windows 7 128GB partition to VM Fusion 5 Pro? Step by step instructions please? Thank you for the help.
