Re: Introduction, and a question

I'm illustrating probability. And how serious the consequences are cannot be assumed to be more minor in the case of a thumb drive. If you have most of your unfinished masters thesis on a thumb

Re: Accessible voice and text chat

I assume Mocrosoft is another disparaging name and not a typing error? Apple was ten or fifteen years behind in doing anything about accessibility. I haven't used Apple products so I can't compare.

Re: Accessible voice and text chat

Good point Tyler. And this goes back to the VFO brewhaha we had on here last week. I don’t see how Narrator would disrupt open source screen readers like NVDA as his Erickness stated in that

Re: Introduction, and a question

Windows 7 I believe, and I plug into many computers, installing NVDA, and I use a 64GB thumb drive, and it would be time consuming to scan that on everyone’s computer. Glenn

Re: Introduction, and a question

I totally agree. "Safely remove this device" was put there for a purpose. Microsoft is good at making things as easy for the user (and hiding the technical details) as possible - they wouldn't
