Ester, Do you know if Misus is more accessible with VO than pages? I love my mac but I miss word 2003. maybe it is because I had to work with it so much and I just got used to it. Anyway, I haven't gotten used to pages. I think it is not as accessible as word with a pc. thanks for any assistance you can give. Nancy On Dec 10, 2011, at 7:13 PM, Esther wrote:
Hi All, One of the interesting accessible alternatives for Office on the Mac is Nisus Writer Pro, which had a major version update a few months ago, and was very favorably reviewed at TidBITS: • Nisus Writer Pro 2.0: The Review http://tidbits.com/article/12220 (This is a very detailed review, but the upshot is that the author considered the new additions rendered it superior to both Word and Pages as his basic writing tool. Also, for international list members, this app features extensive multi-lingual support.) Nisus Writer Pro is being offered as part of the MacLegion 2011 Winter Bundle of 10 apps for $49.99. It regularly lists for $79.00, and these apps entitle you to the full support of regular purchases and updates, so this is a good deal. Another interesting bundle app that has been highly rated by list members is MacGourmet Deluxe (normally $49.95). I believe some list members have also used AppDelete to manage cleaning up application removals, but I'm less familiar with the other bundled apps and their accessibility status. In addition, buyers of the first 10,000 bundles will also receive MacScan (normally lists for $29.95), which will accessibly scan your machine for spyware or other privacy violations as an additional free app. You can designate licenses for apps you already own to be gifted to other users on the check-out page. If you've been thinking of getting any of these apps, the total bundle price of $49.99 for 10 apps (or 11 if you act early) makes this a very good deal. You can download a trial version of Nisus Writer Pro, or MacGourmet Deluxe if you want to check things out before buying the bundle. This deal runs through the next 2 days.
