Hi, Al!  I haven't heard anyone else around here say they use IBM's 
Screen Reader.  So, are we it?  I didn't understand it, but was interested 
in your comments about reconfiguring Screen Reader so that now you 
don't use the keypad very much.  Would you explain it again?  How do 
you like Screen Reader?  I like it very much.  I haven't really used 
anything else all that much.  I have some demos I've worked with some, 
but nothing extensively.  I'm fairly new at all this, so am interested 
in hearing from other Screen Reader users.
 
The Easter Seals office in Fort Worth works with IBM, and I called 
not long ago asking them about their discounts on adaptive equipment. 
 The lady I spoke with asked what equipment I had.  When I mentioned 

Screen Reader--get this, Al--she started asking me questions about 
Screen Reader!!  Isn't that the way sometimes?  They have people with 
no disabilities to administer programs and sell equipment they know 
nothing about!
 
Anyway, thanks for what you can share.
 
Linda
