Hi,
I have played around a bit with the pro version of Facetab, as this is the one
that has chat support.

Getting this app to work at first can be difficult, it puts an icon in your

Kimberly,
Since that post, I've figured out some of the answers. First, SMCFanControler
doesn't work with VoiceOver. But, FanControler version 1.2 does. I'd tried it
earlier & couldn't figure where it disappeared too, after the install. I went
back & did some more checking. Well, long stor
My Macbook Pro only gets hot when I run Windows in VMware Fusion while I am

my MPB stays as cool as can be.

If turning on Trackpad commander by the rotate gesture on the trackpad, then
doing the three finger double tap doesn't bring VO back, then type F12 to bring
up the volume as it might be muted. F9 is the Toggle to Mute/UnMute sound by
the way.

Is VO on he Mac able to handle flash, or does it just handle less well than
Jaws on a Windows machine? It's not clear from your comment which is the
case. The answer probably won't change my mind about getting a Mac, but it
would be nice to know before I make the switch this summer.
