Hi Eleanor

Yes but I am happy with my windows pc's, plus I cannot afford a mac, they are 
too damn expensive. Windows is not the issue, the issue is with the fact that 
no one screen reader can do everything and with the price of them, it is not 
possible for us to have them all. 

Regards

Adrien

well of course if you had a Mac then all programs would work equally.you would 
not be chopping and changing between screen readers as you would simply be 
using voice over.
