Hi Rick,
Great to hear you got a mac, I really like the podcasts. I've posted a few
links to help new users like you on my website
www.ashleycox.co.uk
Well done on the mac setup, You did better than I did! During the setup of my
mac mini, I typed the password incorrectly and had to get apple tech support to
put it right. Quick 5 minutes over the phone and all sorted. And yes, you're
right, the mac mini is very difficult to upgrade, though you can do it.
it is certanly worth getting an apple keyboard. I found personally it works
much better. You can also use the mouse with VO if you wish to: just go to
voiceover utility (ctrl option f8) go to verbosity, and, on the announcements
tab you will find a "speak text under mouse after delay" checkbox. Check it and
drop the slider next to it down to 0.
Hope this helps, if you need any help feel free to contact me with either the
email address on the website or

Hi Everyone,
Some of you here probably know me from the Windows side of town. For those
of you that don't know me, my name is Rick Harmon and I run the Blind Geek Zone
website where i provide lots of free tutorials for Windows and primarily Jaws.
I Just purchased a mac mini a couple of weeks ago and decided to do a series
of podcasts from the perspective of switching over to the mac from a windows
point of view. I know litterally nothing about the mac side of town and have
been curious for a while now about using one. So far reviews have been quite
positive and I plan to continue to do more podcasts as I learn how to do more
and more with the mac. Anyone interested in listening to them, the links will
follow.
mac podcast 1:

mac podcast 2:
http://www.blind-geek-zone.net/audio/macpodcast2.mp3
mac podcast 3:
http://www.blind-geek-zone.net/audio/macpodcast3.mp3
Remember these podcasts are primarily geared to people curious about
switching over to the mac from windows and are not really for experienced mac
users, unless you want to have a laugh.
Enjoy,
Thanks for providing a great list for learning the mac.
Rick Harmon
