I'd like to find out about this as well. I love my mac, and although, somewhat new, have taught myself an awful lot. Do you know if there are a lot of blind people working for apple?

Trying to break the Windows stranglehold on our local blind community, will need qualifications. Generally, over here the blind community is approximately 10 years behind the time. That needs rectifying as soon as possible, and somebody has to do it, why not me?
