yep, the mac is usable; sometimes you have the odd crash, but it happens much
less than windows. Using safari is easy once you get the hang of it; it's just
learning a new screen reader that is completely different to anything else.

Hello,
slowly I am finding my ways arround Mac OS X.
Now since I speak German I need to purchase a speech synthesizer. This
willcost me about 99 Euro plus vat.
Currently I am using the demo of Acapellas speech synthesizer.
The good thing about Mac OSX is that the screen reader comes with it for free.
However I am working under Windows and I already have a screen reader
working.
Now would you say Mac OS X is usable at the present 10.6.3 state of
development?
I read about safari being busy and mail crashing etc. etc.
It is fun to play with OS X but I wonder if it is fun to work with it. I feel
that using Safari is harder than using internet explorer with Jaws for example.
This might be due to my lack of knowledge. I have taken my time to learn how
to use Jaws or any screen reader.
So ... Is it worthwhile spending more than 100 Euros if you already had a
working environement?
Thanks for any thaughts.
Jeronimo
