Hello; the only thing is when the mac is actually shutting down you
will hear a message that says shutting down. that probably doesn't
help much. but since its a system message maybe you could set the
system volume higher than the screen reading volume so you hear that
message. I can hear it perfectly, and sometimes I'm not sure if it
has shut down either. gooc luck, max

Actually, I guess I need to be more specific for the blondes on the
list. If I try to shut down, or if I'm using the Mac without VO,
say, for a movie, I'm just wondering if there is any other way to
confirm it's status. Or, if VO shuts up, then I haven't a clue
whether I've turned off the Mac or if it is still running. It's
really not that strange a question. Is it?

hi, i know i have blonde hair but usually it is not so obvious.
I am in doubt... it is when the computer is on you are in doubt?
else i am really confused.
Selution. we hack the speech so it makes a loud sound when you hit

Hi mac family:
I'm a proud owner of a MacBook Pro, and a pc-convert wanna-be.
(although as I write, I'm cheating).
I live in Denver Co with my daughter, age 12, and my husband. I'll
try not to ask too many silly questions.
In any case, I have a silly question: I'm hearing impaired, so
don't really hear my mac when it's on. With my pc, there is a
little noise, but also, I can use the disk-door to see if the
power's on. With the Mac slot loader, there's no way for me to
know. Any ideas?
TIA
