Correct, this works with MacOS X 10.4 Tiger.  I've tried VoiceOver just to
play around with it a bit, and I didn't like it.  I turned it back off
soon thereafter.  I wouldn't want to be dependant on a program like this
for all my web access.

But if someone wants me to do some specific testing, please let me know. 
This is now my main machine, and I have both Safari and Firefox, and I can
install a number of other browsers for testing purposes (including Opera,
Camino, etc...).
