First let me say that I have low vision and I use voice over with the screen magnified by pointing with my curser what it is I want to have read to me for most things rather than the key commands because I find it difficult to remember the key strokes and needing so many fingers tu make a command. I get frustraited when I try interacting with stuff on the internet and making the computer read to me. The settings I have make it harder for my husband to use my computer because he strictly uses voice over with braille and having it set my way is harder for him. I understand the new snow leopard will be having easier commands
