Hi there list,I am a prospective switcher. Being tired of viruses, spyware, malware, jawsfor windows costing $1500, windows crashing at the most inopportune times, stupid problems in general, etc. I basically joined this list to soak up as much info as humanly possible. For those who wish to know, I am Brandt Steenkamp, a blind guy from South Africa. Messaging is an importent part of my dayly life, thus using Skype and iquivalents to MSN or as it's known nowadays "Windows Live messanger" and google talk is high on my list of must have's. I won't post often, unless I found information someware that I wish explained in greater detail and if possible, demonstrated.
