I figured out the select buttons.
My main concern is with the radio buttons. Doesn't seem possible to customize
the machine.

the select buttons are in order of the table.

I'm using SL, and am experiencing problems with the Apple store. I'd tried this
site before from a PC screen reader, and didn't have any problems, so I wasn't
expecting any with VoiceOver, given the simple layout of the site.
On www.apple.com<http://www.apple.com>, I went to the Apple Store and selected
the IMac.
A table is presented, where each column is a different IMac model. I could
interact with the table and read the info, but the focus wouldn't move to the
very bottom row, where the "select" buttons are located. These buttons must be
pressed to pick a particular model. I tried using the tab key, and could get to
select buttons, but it wasn't obvious which button was for which model.
Anyway, I pressed the select button for the appropriate model, and the
configuration page appeared. This page seemed to have lots of problems. For
example, when you navigate to the area where you choose the processor model,
VoiceOver only says "bullet" The processor area is a radio button group. I was
expecting that VoiceOver would identify the group, and I'd need to interact
with the group to select one of the radio buttons.
Am I doing something wrong? I must be, since it seems very surprising that
Apple wouldn't make its store compatible with VoiceOver.
