I don't think that's being cute, because it's accurate. I own a Mac, but
many things i didn't have time to learn, so still rely on Windows, which I
also had installed on my mac.
If Apple continues to offer free alternatives for blind folk... that's a
wonderful thing.
just my nickle and dime on the subject...
Cornell
"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't
be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's
thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner
voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and
intuition."
-Steve Jobs
