I have taken to using both computers right now. I have a mac laptop and a windows desktop. Grant it I use my windows desktop more but as I learn voiceover, I hope to move between both systems equally. It is not about which is better for it is a matter of perspective of the individual. I like jaws for what it does, making my windows pc blind friendly. But, I cant access jaws in say a public library, the computer lab at school or my sighted cousin's house but I can access a mac in all those locations using voiceover. Provided there computer is not ten years old! But I like my windows pc for the use of Kurzweil1000, Duxbury which I use with my braille printer and the victor stream to read books. I hope that in the future, kurzweil1000 will have a mac equivalent like kurzweil 3000. Now that I am familiar with the mac, I can walk in a library, school or any other public places in get on a mac to do what I need to do without sighted help. I know someone might put forth system access to go for windows users? Just one problem, if that computer is not connected to the internet, how can you access system access? If you are at a log in screen, how would you know with out speech to tell you? I am not defending one over the other, it is a matter of what one's needs are at the time. I believe one should be familiar with both, not that they need to have both! Heather
