hi all, thanks very much for the support so far.
i got the call from my university today. i thought they asking me to go and pick up my new MBP however, as the result, they rang to say that they can't provide me with any kind of Mac product. not MBP, or MBA, or Ipad even. the reason behind that is, there's no technical support on campus for any Apple products, and well, with windows or Jaws or MSOffice, the IT Arguement is they already have onside licence for it, so, the only problem they need to worry about is getting an empty laptop and then they can transfer those licence to it. its a sad news, but thats the best they can do for now. Since i'm on the committee meeting for our disability committee on campus, i'm going to suggest that, if student with disability in future who having deficulty and needing a laptop or such for their study purposes, the university should able to get them an IPad. i mean, realisticly, is the most ephysion with cost effectiveness adductive technology in place, before any laptops or notebooks. ones again, thanks for all the support regarding my enquiry with office or iwork. i'll of course, post more problems sooner or later to the list, as i have an imac for my home use. cheers Joanne (Australia) On 26/08/2011, David Tanner <david.tanner...@gmail.com> wrote: > You will not be able to access MicroSoft Office with VoiceOver.
