Widgets take up negligible drive space... You don't *have* to get rid of it, just never use it. If you DO want to get rid of it, remember that you will have saved it along the correct path, so just retrace your steps, find it in Finder and Trash it. Bye bye poor little widget. • Mark Burni

Ok, fair enough. So, if you download one and find it's not useable/accessable with vo, how do you get rid of it? I mean, we never know this stuff until we experiment a bit and try things out sometimes, within reason.. Thanks for the info, Caitlyn On Sep 25, 2011, at 3:01 PM, Mark BurningHaw

You can do a google search for Dashboard Widgets for OS10 and you'll find scads of them. However, some of them, even some of the ones included with OS10, are not VO friendly, unfortunately. • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.
