Hi,
The point of this portion of the thread was pretty much about his motivations
in regard to accessibility on the Mac and IOS and, how much of a role did he
play in it. so, I'm not sure you can say "there, end of story. No matter his
motives, he saw a market and built for that…".

Hi,
Thats true, but he would have done the exact same for any other
feature of iOs - that won't have been exclusive to accessibility. I'm
not saying that he didn't care about it all, but people talking about
him as if he was some sort of missionary is a bit over the top imo; he
won't have made voi
Hi,
Another arguement i have from some other sources are that, considering
how "hand on" person he is, won't be surprise if he has a major impack
on their accessibility.
Regardless, does it matter? After all, come to the products, and the
products are useful, accessible, and become an essential i
Hi,
There wasn't any mention of accessibility in the biography at all, but
then again, hardly any of the individual features of osx or iOs were
mentioned iether.
The opinion that I have is that whilst he probably had little to no
involvement in accessibility, its because of him that it works so we
Hi,
I didn't read the book yet but, How much did Jobs really have to do with making
Apple products accessible? I mean, was he like overseeing the maturation
process of voiceover like IOS or OSX?

I've just read the biography, too. I'm amazed he lived as long as he did.
I also think the author was a bit harsh, pointing out that Steve Jobs wasn't
into philanthropy — for me, he went one better, he aimed to make Apple products
accessible to everyone. That attitude is much less patronising!
I've finished his biography; it wasn't light reading but it was very
interesting and I'm glad I read it.

Hi Teresa,
I liked that as well a tool is only as strong or as weak as the human
using it.
Thanks on the condolences, a time to remember where my power lies to be

right tools.
