Hello everyone, i have owned my first macbook pro for about a week now (minus a few hours). I switched my mail yesterday so now I am not tempted to use my pc if I want to do a quick websearch anymore. I must say it goes reasonably well, there are some things I still need to figure out (voicover keyboard commander and how to assign keys to my braille display) to work with openoffice (luckily i was used to use wordpad n windows on most occasions anyway and textedit seems to be a lot better) to work in group mode in safari (but dom mode works fine) and to see if certain applications work on the mac and for me especially like ocr, ftp newsreaders p2p and mudclients. I also still want to dop do an install of winxows 7 using vmware fusion when it comes out. But on the plus side I can use adium more or less proficiently and I can use skype so all in all after a week in which i did not use the mac on a very regular basis I am still rather impressed. Especially now that I can use mail with my primary mail account. I still need to get familiar with voicover and i find that often i need speech to find my way around (something i did not have to do on windows where i NEVER used speech) although luckily o the mac the way you use speech and braille are more similar to each other and it has a nicer default problem so its not too much of a pain, i still need to create a shortcut to mute and unmute speech though. But, since i have used hal (the worst screenreader for windows, sorry but it is just true) for the last 8 years I am rathe rimpressed what I can now do under the mac with relative low experience. I love vlc for example. Greetings, Anoukw
