Please don't miss understand me, I love the Mac, I have one but I believe that if I'm lucky enough to be able to afford windows and a second computer, than I should use them. I'm from Australia and I find the transcription website that I'm studying from just doesn't quite work with safari. As well I use a laptop for my job and I can tell you that a lot of work places are windows orientated.

I have a friend who does medical transcription on the mac full time. And when I ran my vending business, numbers did what I needed it to do for my ledgers replacing excel. Most people who think the mac can't get the job done, either aren't willing to learn, or haven't done enough research to see what works and doesn't work on the mac. Can you install an OS by yourself on windows? Not before windows 8. Do you have to pay for a screen reader in edition to the computer with the mac, no you don't, and all updates to voice over are free, plus if you do a clean install, or change some hard ware, you will not need more activations. I think the good out way the bad. JMO Frustrated with your I-device, Mac or AppleTV? New user and want quick Efficient answers?

The Mac just doesn't quite cut it where serious productivity is concerned. Though in my case I'm quite happy to run two computers as my windows 7 machine is all set up with what I need for my medical transcription studies.

My brain couldn't handle all the switching back and forth when both systems were open at once. For my work, I need to use Windows and there are several software programs that just work better in the PC environment at this time such as OCR and translating/embossing braille.I do love my Mac and hoping that in the future more of the PC software will be more compatible with accessibility on the Mac.

OS X 10.10 looks very promising, but doesn't quite take away the bitterness for me. We'll see. Probably, as usual, I will relent and make do with less. In any event, people should be objective about their requirements, and if that means using Windows, for heaven's sake use it! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
