I did try so hard to get on with the mack but I really hate it I even upgraded my little mack mini, and now it just sits there oh well I won't ever get another mack but I am sure some love it. the one thing I can say you can install from scratch on your own with speech straight out of the box. I listened to a podcast last week and there was some talk about windows being able to put the CD in at some point and we will press a key stroke and have speech we wait and we wait and we wait some more!

Hi Kevin

I don't think the Apple brigade should get upset, it's just about
preference, there isn't a right or wrong to it.  Personally I like the
iPhone, but I'm in no way a Mac fan.  But then they will say Windows and our
screenreaders is nothing but hassle, so there you go! (smile.)  It's great
to have so many choices.

Jacky,   hi   I agree I have a mack as well,   I hate it love the phone
and I pad but hate the mack if you like it good for you but I would have
windows any day over the mack. I know I know some apple fan boys will get
upset but there you are.

would ever trade Windows for the Mac OS, even if I was paid to.  I
have a Mac, but I don't enjoy using it.  I appreciate I am nowhere
near as clued up on it as I am in Windows, and I admit that this
influences my thinking.  I have just purchased a Dell XPS13, but the
equivalent spec on a Macbook Pro would have cost me easily £600 more, and
offered me a lot less connectivity.

I appreciate it is all subjective, and if you Mac guys are happy with
your lot, then good for you.  But I would never be drawn away from
Windows on a full-time basis no matter what problems I come up against.

Hi Mo,

Ably backed up by this article too:-

http://www.hartgen-home.org/node/47

I don't believe that in a working environment, Voiceover is nearly
good enough, compared to Windows screen readers.

All the best

Steve

Hi.
This is a very well written article which I found very interesting.
Macs aren't all they're cracked up to be it would seem...
