Hey just purchased the I-Work package or whatever it is. I have a textbook that I need to read for my Intro to Computers class and I've noticed that when pressing the VO+A hotkey to read all, it doesn't necessarily read all. It'll read 10 or 15 paragraphs and then it'll stop. I can send someone

Hi Kevin. Yes, the textbook is a doc file but it has pictures in it. I have used TextEdit in the past to read this particular text but at the top of it, it has a whole bunch of degree signs and other weird symbols. I'm guessing it's because of the pictures. And as for converting it into a PDF fo

Regarding the Ichat application, it's ok as long as you don't have an MSN or Facebook account. Someone can correct me on this, but I think Ichat only supports Aim. However, you can download a program called Adium free. Don't know the website, or should I say forgot it, but google is your friend.
