Peter and all,
there aren't really any contradictions in the various answers,
Steve Hoad's is the most accurate and complete.

It's not completely correct to say that you can't run windoes
programs on a mac.  Actually its been possible for years with
some limitations.

However this most certainly does not include screen readers and
the like.Macs can read PC disks but its the very devil to read a
mac disk on a PC.

I didn't know that OutSpoken for Mac is still available, but as
another responder detailed, very few would be using old enough
Mac operating systems to allow this screen reader to work.

Gaads eeks, does somebody else have to use the name "Tiger" for a
product of interest? Pretty soon there'll be more tigers in your
local store than in the Indian Jungles <G>.
