The movie from Chris does make it look like it is live. I wonder if
you really need the cable they talk about, though; I heard on forums
that it costs $25 or so, which is a lot for a cable. Besides which,
are all these effects and settings accessible?

Thanks. It looks like you can record and apply effects later, but I'm

around this but I can't remember it for the life of me.

of stuff about your Mac and the devices attached to it.

Hi Ricardo,
As far as I know, if you use dropbox on the mac, you won't be able to access
any of its settings, because voiceover can't see its icon in the menu bar.
People have to do something special, which I can't remember, to actually get
into the dropbox status menu item. Is that still true?

Hello Thomas,
While this method works with some PDF files, it won't work at all with others.
1. When you encounter a PDF file, open it. On the Mac, the program used for
looking at PDF files is called "Preview," and it should automatically launch
when you open the PDF file from within Finder.
Woops, I didn't read this entire conversation; sorry about that. :)
