Yeah, William, if people have spent the $99 to buy it. Plus, KNFB reader
doesn't really do that great, in my personal experience, with reading
computer monitors. Plus, the buttons like Next, and Cancel, etc have
underlined letters so you know what key to hit with your alt key. KNFB
isn't gonna tell you what those underlined hotkey letters are. Plus, If you
wanted to use the mouse to get through the installer, KNFB isn't going to be
able to direct your mouse pointer to where you need to click.
I see where you're going with this, but it would probably be more headache
than it's worth. You'd probably do better with Be My Eyes, although,
lately, I'm not so convinced of that after the problem that every one of my
I O S devices seem to be having according to the sighted vollenteers. But,
that's for another post.
Chris.

Hi
I received my first Mac on Saturday. I have done a lot of studying and I
think I am quite proficient at the screen-reading with it.
However, I am very undecided about whether to use Windows with Bootcamp
or
with VMWare. For my work, I do need to use Windows. This is a high spec
machine so I wanted to take advantage of that. But I have some
questions.
I like the idea of having VMWare, so I can "flick" between different
operating systems. However, precisely please what are the advantages of
running it in Bootcamp as opposed to a virtual machine? If I ran it as a
Virtual Machine, what disadvantages would I notice? For example, would
there
be any kind of delay when using a Windows screen-reader?
My other question relates to installing Windows. I've read a lot, and
there
does not seem to be an easy way described with complete accuracy as to
how
to install Windows without vision. This may seem like a strange
question,
but if I booked an appointment at an Apple store to get some sighted
help,
is that good etiquette? Are they likely to say no because I need to
install
Windows?
I have the MacBook Pro, external keyboard and the Apple Superdrive which
I
could take along there.
Thank you for any help.
