Hi Mike.

I'm curious about whether or not you are using the voice over in O
S 10.4 or are you just commenting on this because you know that the Mac 
exists as a UNIX based computer with a GUI.  If you are actually using 
this, I would be interested in an exchange, probably off the list, to 
discuss how good the accessibility is.  I'm curious about whether you can 
find out the same level of information that you can on a good Windows 
screen reader, or is it more like Windows Narrator.

73, de Lou K2LKK
