Kel,
You may love your Mac but Apple and Steve Jobs does not love us blind people.
for years, he has refused until recently to develop access to the Mac and
recently did so to settle a contracting dispute.
There are very few blind Mac users so virtually all developers of adaptive
technology hardware and software, including APH, do not spend the resources for
use on the Mac.

Ouch! Thanks for your input, Stan. If it?s a matter of give up the Mac or
throw In the Book Port towel, I?d have to go for the latter.
I?ll advise the list should I come up with a solution.

Hi Kel,
To the best of my knowledge there is no solution to your problem, apart
from what you have written. I have just sold all my Mac gear (it cost a
fortune) so I could use Bookport and DNS. I purchased my first Mac in 1984 and
sold my last Mac in 2007. I tried the Intel processor in a MacBook Pro and
became so frustrated when using either Boot Camp or Parallels, I decided to buy
a PC running Vista.
I can tell you I am still confused. Mind you, I will get there eventually,
even at my age (84).
Stan,
Mildura.

Hi, I?ve acquired a shiny new book port and have already hit a brick??
wall... As I?ve discovered, Windows is required for Book Port, which??
(as a Mac user) leaves me with a problem.
Apart from an emulation program or the purchase of Windows PC (or??
intel chipped Mac) is there any simple work around which will allow??
continued use of my beloved G5 iMac In conjunction with Book Port?
TIA
