[stylist] Mac or Windows pain

[Robert Leslie Newman]

Brad

I am soon to have a iPad Mini, and it'll have Pages, And I understand it
will have a spell checker on board (Super weird if a full blown word
processor wouldn't.) But you do bring up a very good question/concern about
the ability to check out attribute's of font and formatting!!! (And the text
analyzer JAWS has is indeed useful.)

Hi All,

Been a while since I posted here. 

I wondered if anyone here, or any writer you might know of, is using a Mac
wit Voice Over to do their writing.

Jaws with Windows is good feedback on text editing, but frankly I'm tired of
MS doing stuff like not spell checking documents properly, not saving the
settings once fixed to check spelling, and the various Windows
vulnerabilities.

I'm not looking for a spell checker fix, been there, done that.  

I'd thought of a Mac, but not sure it gives ample feedback. I use the text
analyzer a lot with Jaws and if I need font feedback, it's available.

Just wondered if anyone was a Mac user and if it was deemed suitable,
efficient, and feedback informative.
