problem. In writing my previous note I forgot a few resources online which may
also help Aaron. These are Web sites maintained by blind Mac users for blind
Mac users. They are <A href="http://www.applevis.com">www.applevis.com</A> and
<A href="http://www.macfortheblind.com">www.macfortheblind.com</A>. Both of
these have many useful resources on how to use the Mac and other Apple
products as a blind person. While I believe this is paid, Mac for the Blind
also has personal training in Mac usage which can be done online or over the
phone. I am not sure how much they charge for this service, but prices should
be listed on the Web site. I’m sorry I can’t be of any further help to Aaron
on this question, as I do not currently use a Mac. However, there are many
blind people who do and many resources out there for learning about its use
with the VoiceOver screen reader.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
