Hello Peter, Darcy and Holly are not commenting on NFB matters. Rather, they're commenting on blind community matters where the largest American organization of the blind may be misrepresenting certain aspects of accessibility on the Mac. I don't own a Mac. I'm a Windows person. Even so, I am not going to sit in judgment of a platform about which I know little, especially when I know at least ten blind people who are using most aspects of the Mac quite successfully now. I have it from reliable sources whom I've learned to trust over the years that NFB is just dead wrong in many ways with this Braille Monitor article. We should all take care to have our facts straight before going public, especially when criticism is being delivered.

Good afternoon everyone, Okay buddy get your ass busy and develop a comparable MAC OS. Spend more time undertaking such projects and less time commenting on NFB matters!

I have just posted the latest episode of the BLindWorld Blog and Podcast. It is a reproduction of an episode of The Screenless Switchers Podcast's latest episode, featureing a thorough critique of a horrifying article published by the NFB concerning Mac OS X. Find my show at http://feeds2.feedburner.com/BWBP or download the file directly at http://www.shanejackson.net/Screenless_Switchers.mp3 and be warned that the podcast is over 2 hours in length. I would, however, urge you to listn to the whole thing, as it is most relevant. Thank you. Shane Jackson Vestavia Hills, Alabama, USA.
