Hi: An argument I presented in my proposal to California Rehab was the added accessibility for Mac as compared to a machine running Windows and Jaws. I'm a broadcast journalism major, so a Mac just made sense in my case, because I'd need to do a lot of audio editing and occasional video and photo work. Programs like that which also work well with Jaws are hard to come by. Although maybe your student isn't a broadcast major, but if you could brainstorm some programs that would work better for them on Mac as compared to Jaws, that may help to sway your Rehab people for the long term. Also present the other arguments shared here, though. My proposal used a variety of arguments. Also remember some counsellors have no idea about technology and how far it has come. Sometimes this could be used to your advantage, but sometimes it could also make it difficult to present your case. It's about finding a balance. Best of luck with this, --Des
