Hi Tim,
Sorry for not getting back to you in a while.
The preferences control for user management seems like a straight forward but
daunting task. I wanted to share this little command line application that
allows you to simulate moving a mouse to an x y coordinate and click the mouse.

You definitely need to at least have a monitor connected, the older minis, from
before 2008 could get around this by connecting the adapter that allows you to
connect it to a TV through the RCA plug. All newer minis however, must be
connected to a monitor, no way around it.

Thanks, I appreciate your reply. I think that we all have a tendency to come
down on producers of blindness products, and sometimes we do it without knowing
all the facts.
I'll admit I have done the same thing and found out later that I was in the
wrong.

I figured out the solution last night. In frustration, I went to the keyboard
pane in preferences. One of the options was to use function keys as regular
function keys. I check the box, and guess what, all of the function keys worked
as function keys. Problem solved.

Yes, you can do this in the login items tab in your account settings in
Users and Groups and System preferences. Make sure you mount the desired
volumes first and then add them as you would if you wanted an application to
startup with the system. I have done this and it works like a charm.
Yes, but this isn't the only thing that makes the finder go nuts, and if
