Logic is useable, and accessibility improvements are supposed to be imminant. I'd suspect that if protools is bout to vont accessibility then logic will have to step up even if it isn't prepared to do so, which I believe it is.
Logic 8 has over 1000 pre-assigned keybord shortcuts and an accessible menu bar. You could also further simplify logic by adding a surface controller to make mixing and EQ'ing easier. It's far from perfect, but there's good potential there. Best, erik burggraaf A+ certified technician and user support consultant.
