I thought for sure there was a Mac solution to the Transfer Sofrware. So, just because you got a few people bitching about Apple, instead of really answering your question, don't give up. Give the knowledgable people a chance to see and anser your message. _____ From: bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Kelly Pierce Sent: Saturday, September 22, 2007 8:19 AM To: bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bookport] Re: Newbie post 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.

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.

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).

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?
