Hello everyone,

I started out law school with a Mac.  I had to switch to Windows because I was not able to efficiently and efficiently utilize my textbooks nor was I able to use pages without major issues when writing documents. Just my 2¢ worth.

If you are familiar with iOS a lot of the same just yours can be used to control voiceover on the Mac he using the trackpad that makes things a lot easier. Some of the voiceover keystrokes are complicated keyboard gymnastics some say so using the trackpad can be easier in some of those instances. Would be happy to talk off list if you have further questions. Have a good weekend.

For the last couple of years I have been thinking about converting over to Mac., but I have been nervous about learning a new operating system. However, I love apple products and I am tired of buying a new PC every two years. In addition, I am tired of dealing with viruses on my computer. Recently, I saw that Siri is available on Mac computers, and I am thinking about getting one. Do you think Siri would help me learn the Mac operating system faster? Does anyone have any experience on converting from PC to Mac, and how long did it take you to master the Mac operating system.
