Hi Cait. Actually, anyone that has Sierra installed will be able to run High 
Sierra. That includes mid 2010 Macs like mine. And as for the extra key, they 
did this so that accessing the navigation rotor is easier for people. But I do

i love that now if you have other language voices and you set VO to select the 
voice based on language in the roter if you hit a german webpage it will speek 
using what ever german voice you have on.
You can add an extra languages, the speech settings page is quite different.

 Good day list,
 I was wondering why, on the new High Sierra for Mac, did they take away VO 
 plus right arrow, so that you can quickly change things (e.g., speech 
 rate, volume, etc?)
 I don't seem to be able to use VO plus right arrow any longer to adjust 
 those values, and was wondering how else can I adjust stuff like speech 
 rate on the fly? When I use VO plus right arrow now, it shows only stuff 
 like, (If I'm on my desktop), words, characters, web spots, navigation, 
 etc.)
 No longer do I see speech rate, volume, or none of the options available 
 when Mac OS Sierra was a fully released version. Do I have to now use 
 Voiceover Utility from now on to configure what I want? I went into VO 
 help, but it doesn't give me what I need as far as a solution.
 Thanks for any help that can be provided.

Um, I thought it was vo command and the arrow keys to change options like 
speech rate, etc?

when I do vo right arrow alone, it just advances the vo cursor through wherever 
I happen to be..
