Hi,

NVDA is a screen reader like JAWS except for the pricetag which is free.

I have been considering switching to a Mac ever since I discovered how user 
friendly they are and that they have a built in screen reader and magnifier. 
Yes, I knwo Microsoft does too, but those are very basic. I got the chance 
to play with an ipad recently and was very impressed with the entire 
experience and usability.
JAWS
Each to their own. I am personally needing to cut some costs and if I can 
get by just fine using NVDA instead of shelling out $200 for the SMA, that's 
what I'll probably do.
