Joseph,
That's true if you are using the Mac operating system, but some folks also run the Windows operating system on their Mac and switch back and forth between operating systems.

Hi,
Will not work, sorry. They were built for two different OS's, and the format of JAWS program is different from something that Mac cannot read.
Cheers,
Joseph

Subject: Jaws and the McIntosh Computer

Has anyone ever used jaws with the MacIntosh computer?  I have heard that
they have something called "voice over" which is supposed to be built into
the product, meaning you don't need sighted assistance to set it up that
it's there right out of the box, but I wondered about using jaws on the
mack.  Has anyone ever done that?

Victoria
