Jeff Steinborn Jeff Steinborn Member Registered: 03/27/01 Posts: 597 Loc: Minnesota	Mac OS X.4 (Tiger) is due in a week. I'm not sure when my copy will arrive, but it would be interesting to get feedback from forum members on it's new accessibility features.

Just because of VoiceOver this will be the most important release of OS X for special education since we got Universal Access and Zoom. That doesn’t account for the other new features . Plus, with sufficient RAM, each previous release of OS X has made the same old hardware run faster. This is great news for schools with tight budgets. Can you image a major MS Windows release speeding up an older computer?

Bruce Bailey Bruce Bailey Member Registered: 05/05/04 Posts: 59 Loc: Washington, DC	Thanks for that MacWorld article link. It’s good to see more than a paragraph or two on a mainstream site. One thing they omitted is how much better Tiger is for keyboard navigation (without VoiceOver running). For example, one can do a complete install without using a mouse (or resorting to Mouse Keys).
