Noth8ing's ever a good enough justification. I'm sorry, but
justification is very hard to do, and I mean really hard. There
is justification though for the fact that universal accessibility
should be built into computers. Windows attempted it with
Narrator, and Narrator sucks. Apple got the Bolotton Award for
2010 for its integration of Voiceover in ALL of its products.
IOS and OS Lion both have some form of it. I am lucky my friend
Jataya purchased an iPod touch for me, which alllows me to write
emails and talk on Skype with friends. I can't live without it,
and if I hadn't had it, I wouldn't have survived so many months
without a working PC or Mac.

That's not a good enough justification Beth. RJ

Hi, all.
To explain why I would like a Mac is simple: universal
accessibility
integrated into the product. Also, I really want something with
good tech
support. The tech support people from India sometimes don't
speak good
English, and given the demographics of india and its people,
blindness is
not thought to be a good thing in India. So if I said, "Whuat
do I do
because JAWs isn't working?" They'll have no answer for me.
That's all I
can say. There are other reasons I want a mac, and I want to be
able to
use one so bad.
