[gui-talk] Voiceover

[albert griffith]

Mike, you stated the Mac's browser had no tables mode.  That flaw not
withstanding how would you describe your surfing experiences generally?
Thanks, Do those using Voiceover navigate the internet with Safari?

Hi, it's definitely ready for prime time, and is used by many blind  
users, I'm using it as I type this message. As far as advantages and  
disadvantages, the main advantage is that it is built in to the  
ooperating system, as a blind person, you pay no more than anyone else  
for accessibility. There are of course differences with the mac  
compared to windows, so there is a bit of a learning curve at first,  
the only other possible disadvantage I could see for some people is  
that on web pages, there is no table navigation mode. I don't see this  
as a big thing, since I never use this even in windows. The macintosh  
has become my primary computer, and I use it far more than windows. I  
would put the functionality of voice over against the windows screen  
readers any day, you can do just as much I think.
