Subject: I met Ted Henter in 1990


Dear Friends,
Well, I met Ted Henter in November 1990 when he came to a Blind Computer Users Group I had founded here in Miami.
He basically came to say he was developing a Screen Reading software.

I must tell you, I did not take him very serious, nor did I think many of the nearly 30 attendents did

I actually chuckled to myself of course, when he took the speakers stand and started his presentation, "How does this guy think he can go up against Digital Equipment Company, DEC Talk, the IBM Screen Reader, Giant corporations that could throw as much money into their Screen reading software programs as they cared to".

I had not a clue that he was on to something fantastic!
I remember him as a very kind soft spoken, cordial gentleman.
I am so glad it worked out for him, and us!

With Best Regards,
Alan

Hello Bob!

Welcome to the list. Since the 1980s? What version of JAWS are you currently
using? Some of us are using JAWS 12 on various platforms and have noticed
some vagaries in operation. What's your experience?
