Cheree Heppe here: It would seem a difficult task to be a moderater of a list such as this. The topic does involve the IOS and MAC products, their development and future. Running a list might almost be seen as a type of fiefdom or micro-ecology where only certain items and iteas could be permitted. I guess making this too broad would be like making a river into a delta, where no boundaries diminished the power of the flow. So, I'm pretty satisfied with Apple, although I did notice that the Windows Surface III really was accessible once the store downloaded and installed NVDA. I do have problems selecting the purchase option once a newly selected app is located. Maybe somebody has a solution.
