While I do agree that will see them in schools and so on, it will be a long 
while before you see them in most businesses. That's the sad part.
 
A lot of people who are seeking employment can certainly learn and use the mac, 
and, hopefully they do. However, they will also have to learn windows, because, 
that's what's being used in main stream America.
 
Also, I still find there are some things that I can't do on the mac efficiently 
enough to be fully productive. Spreadsheets are still somewhat of a problem. I 
know that numbers works, but, not as well as Excell with jaws or windowEyes. I 
hope that will change in the vary near future.
 
Also, on my job, we do a lot of Braille translation. I don't know of a good 
translator for the Mac. Hopefully, someone will set me straight on that 1.

I can't speak to the accessibility of Numbers, but here's an excellent Braille 
translation program. I just pasted a pdf book into an rtf document, and used 
this translator to convert to brf format, then dumped it onto my notetaker. It 
worked like a charm. :)
