Hi Carolyn and Heather,
Well, I work for Vocational Rehab in New York, and in my office, we've
purchased a few Macs and iPads thus far. Mostly for Low Vision Users, but
believe me, if a VO user's request came across my desk, and the justification
was there, I'd approve it in an instant.

Hi Heather,
In our state, Macs are much cheaper than PC's based on our contract we have, so
we're amenable to purchasing Macs as long as the consumer in question can do
what he or she needs to do in relation to their vocational goal.

It's not just rehab, welcome to dealing with the government.
This is why spending money on governmental programs and taxation in general for
the most part is an absolute waste.

I just wanted to say I think it's wonderful that rehab agencies are finally
getting away from Windows, and are opening up to the Mac. This was needed
for the past three years.

It wasn't easy. Towards the end of the process, wen I thought everything had

that very few blind people use Macs and that they're not particularly

It's a pretty great setup you have there. I have the same basic setup but on
the 17 inch with the 500GB SSD drive instead of the 7200 RPM traditional.
Being able to run virtual machines like that is the bees knees.
I also find cracking WEP keys is pretty easy.:) Love having that many cores.
be careful. some people don't like war drivers. :)
yeah, having a mainframe in your lap is definitely worth the money. I have a
dual core desktop unit here and I really wish I had 6 more cores.

Texas, there never in the office always in training and they get four day

Hey guys I am no fan of Microsoft, but you can't blame Bill any longer.
Remember he is off saving the world with Melinda while some other clown runs
the show and doesn't make office accessible on the Mac. :)

Unm it's not Bill's fault though.
A big part of the reason that Microsoft doesn't have native accessibility is
the way a subset of the blind community handled accessibility and MS years
back. There were a whole series of payoffs and backroom dealings that took
place on behalf of some
AH yes, it sounds like an episode of Alex Jones, woe! Heather

Am I writing to a puzzle freak? Because if you really enjoy puzzles I'll
make a couple suggestions which will enable you to stick a fork in that
