One thing that makes the price issue more interesting is that the
really expensive windows screen readers are rarely needed anymore. For
95 percent of the users, system access or NVDA will more than suffice.
Original message:
Any tool that accomplishes the tasks that are desired or required is a
valid tool. For me, if I had to do heavy wordprocessing, I would prefer
Windows. But that's just me. Although insofar as I know, the Mac is an
incredibility well built machine, it does have rather a high price tag.
Financial considerations certainly play a part in any such decision.
However, if we factor in the cost of a high end Windows screen reader,
the high price of a Mac becomes far more manageable. The best decision
anyone can make will be based upon their particular needs. For example,
I have used a Windows program called Station Playlist to handle
internet broadcasting. I would not abandon Windows if I still needed to
use that program. Again, it's the tools you need to get the work done
that you need to do.

Hi. I got my Mac over 2 years ago, it'll be 3 this November. I pretty
much got adjusted to the Mac the day I got it. Funny story about it,
the first day I purchased this thing, I sold my PC. I was like "I don't
need it anymore." I think the reason why for some people the Mac is
harder to use with Voiceover is because they don't use the Voiceover
quick start tutorial. After using it and actually practicing the
Voiceover commands, the rest was a piece of cake. I even started
downloading apps onto this thing. Now look at me. I'm so advanced on
here that I'm running Windows on my Mac. And I also think it's cool
that I can upgrade or reinstall the OS if I need to. Microsoft will
never let us do that.
