[bksvol-discuss] Re: Off topic - laptop user query.

Hi, Rick. I'm going to reply here since others may find the answer useful. I go to two different lists for questions like this. BlindTech is a list for general discussion of technology that blind people use. There are a lot of tech-savvy people there. It is a moderated list, so there isn't much flaming or off-topic chatter. To join, send a blank email to blindtech-subscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The other list I use is more chatty, but it also seems to attract more computer geeks and creative people too. That's probably because that list isn't so firmly moderated. It's called BlindCoolTech, and you can subscribe by visiting the following website:

I hope this will help you find answers to your questions as well as make some new friends. I'm looking forward to seeing you on one or both of the lists.

Off topic - laptop user query.
I apologize for using Booksharet group list.
But I wonder if there are any laptop users out there who could refer me to a
source of information for general use type of questions as a blind user.

Perhaps someone knows of a discussion group?
I'm wishing to benefit from the knowledge and experience of others so as to
get up to speek with it.

Things as this:

Dealing with a mouse pad in front of the keyboard.
I wonder if there is a way to disable it, turn off the little touch pad so
as not to inadvertantly be making mouse clicks.

Learning the keyboard layout.
We just got a Sony Vaio N series notebook.
I use JAWS for Windows and other adaptive software.

There are probably other questions. But don't want to run this message
length up.

Thanks.
Write me off list directly if you would. Address below.
