[Macpartners] Voiceover

[Mateja Miljacki]

Oh and by the way, Voiceover is great, if you have a need for it.
At first, like every other screen reading program, it requires some  
patience to understand, but we have recently written an amazing  
manual for it. It can be found here in PDF and audio formats:
http://www.apple.com/accessibility/voiceover/manual.html

Note, Voiceover is free and built-into every Mac OS X Tiger and  
available from the very first power-up of the machine. A visually  
impaired individual can setup a Mac straight out of a box.
