98, then went on to write about XP, I was given a copy in tape form in a box
it has 3 tapes down each side, I have a similar book made of plastic with
Jaws 5 in it. I am sure by now you can get it second hand or beg or borrow,
George Will know for sure, I once called her Dorothy Morley by mistake and
he corrected me.  Mind you the latter is quite well known Writer but is in
common parlance a shrink!  so a good investment in them both Dorothy
In answer to your question
Sarah Morley  became well known for her book on windows

reading the Issues about loss of focus got me thinking I know xp   often
loses focus, used with Outlook Express anyway. However I know Windows 7
will
be out
soon, I began to wonder if the  lady who wrote books on Windows and how
they
work with screen readers   .  I think Sarah Morley  did she ever
write mor
books? I recall her book which I have in tape form,She obviously did not
mention 1 particular Screen Reader that would be advertising, but she
was
pointing out all the new features but most of all the faults! I recall
her
saying"I hope by the time you read this MS will have sorted it out.That
was
Xp, at the time she wrote she complained Xp came on of its own accord
when
she was outof the room and dialed up her server, I find my desktop will
even
if turnedoff properly tend to come on without warning. Of course times
have
moved on and maybe S.Morley has retired fed up with MS  and assistive
technology   However each day people who have never used Computers before
but got
beyond CCTV's for example take courage to learn  they may be alone at
home
not near any Education Center  or able to buy on premises  tuition. and
their Asssociation for Vips may have  no IT department. So do you think
Sarah
Morley will write a book on Windows  Version 7 andAssistive tech.?  If
not
has anyone else? Dorothy
