Hello Chris, I occasionally use the Zoom tool in OS X. It's very nice and works very well.
I've considered purchasing ZoomText for the Mac but, as yet, see no need to do so as the native Zoom tool meets all of my needs.

I’m curious if anyone on this list happens to therefore use Zoom either on OSX, or on I O S. If so, I don’t have quite enough sight to use it on either, but I’m wondering in general how well it works, and how stable it is in El Capitan? Which oh, my! I just noticed something. In the latest version that just came out, 10.11.1, Alex finally says Capitan correctly. Not really a major thing to be excited about, but still, it is one thing fixed. That’s awesome!
