Hi,

You know, has anyone considered the lack of VO support an issue of public accommodation under ADA? It is not as if the technology doesn't exist to support VO easily and cheaply in today's modern development environments. Granted, I can see a video or graphical paint application being beyond VO, but Word or Toast? I think not.

Wow, and talk about deep pockets... I'm surprise no one has thought about this agains Microsoft.

In the real world one builds ramps for wheelchairs. In the online world, they need to build VO support fo us!
Sorry, those in the UK, you're Toast.  :)

Thinking out loud....

after close thought. I may just give them the ultimate baptism of fire. For my work I am going to be relying on this software and I would rather get somethingthat works rather than something that takes space on my mac and wastes time.

so monday morning hopefully I will be launching my plot heheheheheheeehe mwahahahahahahahahaha ah that felt good

roxio used to be rather accessible as memory serves me under OS 9.2 but hmmm am I seeing a trend in software and companies telling us to "FLOCK OFF" lol

 Hi Listers,
 Here is response about toast 9 from there tech staff.
 I currently use 8.03 only because I've been using Toast since the
 last century.
 LOL I don't think they even looked at VoiceOver!!  8.03 is more
 stable than 6.5 so I thought I would try toast 9 thinking they have
 improved it but I don't think so! May be it is time to "hammer
 them" a bit! LOL
 PS Their Lightscrib label app not very cool either.
