Hi, I have the mac book pro 17 inch and yes you should upgrade the ram
to 8 gigs it will cost you a little but it is well worth it. I myself
upgraded the ram and I say it is best to get it done at an early stage
then a later one when you really need the memory. I agree that more for
the blind user using pro tools 10 needs to be produced as from reading
the manuals with my copy sometimes it is not very clear how to always do
something the blind way even if some keyboard commands are given. I
would so buy a complete tutorial made in audio of using pro tools for
the blind if one existted. I also think we need to go to places around
where we live if avid is going to be showing off pro tools 10 and show
them the accessibility issues as the more they see the issues we are
having learning or using it they could improove their documentation and
their software for everyone. Nick Gawronski

Hello all,
I am getting ready to take the mac plunge, and I was wondering what
people might would recommend. I am looking at getting the macbook pro
with the 15-inch monitor, and the quad cor i7 processor but upgrading
the drive to 8 gigs. Was kind of wondering what people are using who
are using the macbook pros for recording. Also, I have been doing
alot of reading on the voiceover screenreader getting the commands
under my belt before I purchase the mac so I won't have such a huge
learning curve ahead of me. My question on the protools side of
things is this: I know that Kevin Reeves has done 3 great podcasts on
using protools with voiceover, but I was wondering if anyone has
written any guides as far as using protools with voiceover or are
there any other podcast tutorials out there. I thought maybe that was
in the works, that someone was writing the textbooks for the protools
certification courses so that blind people could take those courses as
well. Just was wondering what is out there to learn the program with
voiceover if anything. Thank you for your help,
Brian
