You have to pay for DaChaser, one of the reasons I haven't gotten it yet.

You cannot use Microsoftr Woord with VoiceOver. It simply flat-out will not work, so don't bother. In fact, just uninstall it, that's what I did--uninstall any of the office stuff you get on there, because it won't do you a bit of good--it'll just take up memory that you can usse for more fun things.

I got Read Iris at an Apple Store, bugt if you can't find it there, then yes, order it fro the Apple's 1800 number. If they've got it, grab it. They should.

Apple has it for sure.

I don't know of anyone who is using MSS Word successfully with VoiceOver.

Hi all,
Well, here's the latest about my client, Wally, and I have 2 questions for ya.
Well, today, I downloaded the getting started tutorial and burned it onto CDs for him.
Also, we spent 5 hours on the phone reading chapters 1 through 5, and 7 as well.
He feels alot more confident about going in there Monday morning.
Now, my 2 questions.
1. Does Microsoft word come installed on the mac, or, do I have to buy it separately?
I use word here, and I know it can be used on the mac, and (I guess with the same key commands, huh?)
2. Also, Keith and others, I know you use day chaser, is that a free program, or do ya have to pay for it?
Can it be downloaded, or do I have to get it at the Apple store?
Well, here's a 3rd question, and that is, where can I get the read iris software? I was told the local Apple store in Grand Rapids had it, but Wally found out they didn't have it, and, when I called 800-myapple, one guy didn't know what it was, but Joe, another guy there, said they have it in stock.
So, does anyone know a place that has it for sure?
take care,
Harry
