I usually can diagnose my own Mac problems,but THIS one is ODD (Dual 1.8 Ghz G5, OS X.4.2, 2.5 GB DDR SDRAM)!!
On my desktop, if I highlight an icon, it displays an
outline around it; in Illustrator, ANY input field is outlined; in a Finder window, the whole window is outlined. Has anybody ever heard of this?
I'd rather use this site as opposed to apple.com, because apple.com seems
like one of those automated phone messages ("for this, press 1...").
PLEASE HELP ME!!!
If you want, I can email you screen shots (SERIOUS inqueries only please).
Thanks.

NEVERMIND! Some very funny person turned on the Universal Speech Access, thus highlighting and speaking everything I moused on. Problem solved, punishment delivered. Thanks for the ear time, though. Please close this thread.
Thanks.
