I haven't gotten a computer yet but now all my mail comes to the iPhone so I don't have to turn on the computer anymore.  I do on occasion to read attachments or other stuff.

I love working with the iPhone but am not real crazy about the iPad.  The 6plus has a wonderful speaker for listening to Bibles at night and music anywhere. 

I heard somewhere an iPhone 6x is supposed to be released. I don't want any phone bigger than the six plus. The battery is wonderful though..

Also, my computer for windows is about 12 or 13 years old and having lots of problems from time to time.  I learned a mac can be formatted to be windows and mac and can be changed from one to the other on the fly through hot keys.  I have a couple of ham radio programs that won't work on a mac so I am going to format the macmini into both.  I also got the trackpad which turns the computer almost into the iPhone but it allows you to use it like it were a touch screen or the touch screen on your iPhone.  Do I like the mac?  No, I hate it because this old man is having to learn everything all over again.  I love the Alex voice in the mac, the same one in the i6 iPhones, because of my loss of hearing over this passed year.  Anyhow, the more I learn, the more I like the macmini. My i6 and macmini automatically sync and whatever I can do on the phone, I can do on the macmini.  I got the 1 terabyte machine since I'm basically going to end up with two computers in one, but even 500 gigs is more than I'll ever use.  Sandy experience with her mac air has been so positive, paying all our bills and buying Wal-Mart groceries and having them delivered and ordering other things online with the mac, pushed me to make the decision to go ahead and by the macmini.  It's about the size of a cigar box.  The trackpad also allows a blind user to work as well as a sighted person using a mouse.  I haven't gotten to it yet but the macs have a voice recognition program I'm trusting will work as well as dragon dictate to help me with writing through dictation.  National Braille Press has a great reference book a lady wrote so between that and the mac voice over mailing list and Sandy's knowledge, it was now or never, at my age, haha.
