I have a suggestion for doing google searches. As you no doubt discovered using voiceover as a single search term also brings up the practice of adding voice commentary.
Use as the first search term os10, that is the generic term for the mac operating system. Then add voiceover and the paticular info desired about it. You should not get the voice added meaning of voiceover in the results. Google uses search term order as one rule for searching and adding or excluding results..
