Hi Ricardo and Nic,
Thank you both for your recent posts. I had been considering how best to
respond to some of the comments made elsewhere in this thread, but I
think you guys have just about covered things for me <smile>.
All that I am trying to do is determine the combination of tools that
will make using a desktop computer as easy and efficient as possible. At
the moment my residual vision is such that it should be regarded as one
of the 'tools' available to me (and will continue to be so for some
time). And no, this is not me in some kind of denial about the state of
my vision (as some others have hinted at). It is simply the way that
things are for me.
On something as small as an iPhone my residual sight has little to
offer, so VoiceOver is my only real choice. However, things are less
clear-cut on a desktop. A screen reader on its own would not be the most
efficient option for me at this time. So, I need to decide whether
having VoiceOver available as an option, along with the more important
(to me) screen magnification and colour inversion, offers any advantages
over my current set-up on a PC. Having now seen the colour inversion
feature in operation, the decision is not as clear as I had anticipated.
Looking at my screen right now, everything is displayed in colours that
are optimized for my sight problems. This would not be the case if I
were typing this on a Mac.
David
