A: When you press VO-h, you simply arrow through the choices and press return on the one you wish. > Q: Is there any way to hide the getting started option? A: If you're asking to hide it from within the menu items, then no. If you simply wish to close the guide because you're done with it, then press cmd-q to Quit it. Q: How is verbosity changed, or does this not apply to MacBookPros? A: You can change it using this method. Use the VO Utility by pressing VO-f8 or fn-VO-f8. Interact (VO-shift-down arrow) with the Categories table, select the Verbosity option, stop interacting (VO-shift-up arrow) with the Categories table, then navigate through your verbosity options.
