[macvoiceover] Question about Chess and other things

Hi everybody.  And here I am again with my question for the day.  

I'm playing some chess and want to hear the move hint.  But it speaks at the 
same time as the menu speaks so I miss the move  hint.  Actually, I'm not sure 
exactly what speaks at the same time, but i definitely can't hear the hint.  Is 
there a way to turn off the main voice to hear the move hint?

Also, if anyone knows how to read choices in Open Office spellcheck I'd love to 
know about it.  I like Nisus writer but there is a lot about hearing page setup 
choices and it seems really difficult to figure it out.  I guess in the near 
future someone will make a hefty word processor that is completely accessible.  
We really need one.  

If any of you are using the Apple in a work environment, would you pass along 
names of programs you are using?  I'd really like to make the switch but I'm 
still not finding something I can really use as a transcriptionist who uses a 
word processor all day and needs to know what's going on with page setup and 
spellcheck..  

Thanks for any suggestions.  Otherwise, I guess patience will work because 
hopefully, it's only a matter of time before somebody addresses the access 
issues.
