[nvda] Re: More NVDA promoting

That's what I told my worker. Initially it was rubbish at the beginning, but then I told her that it's been decent and well received for under a year now.

I've been spreading the word too. I talked to a  couple parapros and
AT trainers about NVDA and they've tried it and said it's really
great.  I mean, the project's only about three years old, and it's
gotten exponentially more aweesome with every release. Hats off to
Mick and James and anybody else helping to develop a superb screen
reader that does everything I want it to, and nothing I don't.
To NVDA!

Good man. This is more important than many may realize as after a while
we forget just how many ppl have never even heard of NVDA, or heard of
it a year or more ago when it was much more limited.  Especially among
non-techys who may not have contact with more tech savvy blind people it
is still easy to live a life ignorant of the bliss of the
NVDA-verse...lol...
I do hear more about NVDA all the time, so we are making progress, and
whether it's assisting one blind contact to install or learn to use some
feature of NVDA, or speaking to a rehab pro things will snowball as
James, Mick, and crew are holding up their end admirably.
Just for reference, I'd not even heard of NVDA until I saw these unknown
initials on a usenet group a few times, and asked "what the h e double
toothpicks is NVDA". As I am a proponent of FOS when possible I decided
to try, and fortunately it wasn't all that long before the 2009-beta
came out, and it no longer was a case of hanging with NVDA a bit because
of abstract principles and the price, but as close as there is to true
love when it comes to software.
Cheers,Burt

Hello all,
I am just writing to let you know I have recommended NVDA to a rehab
worker I am going to have. She came and have a chat to me to talk about
what I would like to do when I get my own place. Getting back on topic,
she asked what screen reader I use, and I told her about NVDA. She was
very interested in the fact it's free and open source and, for most
users, surpasses JAWS or other commercial products. So she is going to
check this out and hopefully recommend it to her clients.
Well just wanted to let you know that I am definitely promoting NVDA to
the VI community.
