I keep opening these and wasting my time reading arguments about Freedom 
Scientific, mac vs. Windows PCs, and God knows what else will come soon. 
Nothing to do with defragging anymore, and nothing more interesting for me 
to learn about defragging options if I were unhappy with the Windows System 
Tools utility .

thank you very much!

Are you talking about voice over on the macintosh? Well, it's built in
to the operating system which is why it works so well. Is it perfect?
No, but no screen reader is perfect. I'm actually writing this message
on the macintosh. Since it's built in, you don't pay anything extra
for it, which really is the way accessibility should be. As far as the
law suits go, serotek settled with Freedom Science Fiction I don't
know all of the terms, but part of it I think was that serotek had to
agree that they should not have used the word freedom, it's stupid.
Not sure about the gw micro suit, last I heard it's still pending.
