[nvda] non-technical listers - WAS: Re: Re: Introduction

You're not the only non-tekkie person on this list. <g> I'm pretty good as a computer user but I'm not a programmer either. i signed up for this list because I am enthusiastic about the idea of a free open source screenreader for widnows and I figured the people writing the product might could also make use of feedback from people who actually use the program.
I am fairly impressed with nvda also but need to revert to my main screenreader to use Eudora, my mail client and the program I probably use most on this computer. 

Keep up the good work, everyone!

Hi guys:
I'd like to add my introduction as well. I am Debra Gardner from Texas and my primary screenreader has been window-eyes plus Jaws at work. I am probably the most nontechnical person on this list, so you'll have to bear with me. (smile) I'd like to say to Mick and Jamie a big thank you and that I am very impressed with Nvda for being such a full-blown screenreader that is absolutely free. I've actually been able to use it to help a friend download and install something on her new windows Vista computer. I don't have late enough versions of Jaws or Window-eyes to have done that. I wish I new how to program so I could help you out, but alas ...
My only real problems with Nvda (where I have to quicly pull down another screenreader to help me out) are when I am filling out forms. Just as it doesn't read the two and from lines in outlook express, it doesn't read what I have typed when the virtual pass-through buffer is off. It handles everything else (that I need it for) pretty well.
Once again, thanks for all the hard work and for your desire to create a quality product 

Sincerely,

Debra in Texas

Subject: [nvda] Introduction



Hello all,
I'm Robert Osztolykan from hungary, and i'd like to introduce myself.
Some of you who subscribed to the audyssey gamers mailing list, or visiting audiogames.net's forums, may know me as Robjoy. I'm 19 years old, studying informatic technology, including programming, but unfortunately i do not know the pithon language. 
I'm using jaws as my main screen reader, and, of course, its quite good.
However, after visiting a friend who has no screen reader at all (of course not, he's sighted, stupid me, smiles), i looked for alternatives, and i've found thunder. I've thought, its ok, but when someone has told me about nvda, i said, lets give it a try. So, i did, and i have to say, i'm quite impressed. Considering that its a quite young project, open source, and free, it totally deserves the best free screen reader reward. The fact, that it works with firefox, made me happy as well, since i'm not a big friend of IE, and since i'm using jaws 6.2, which has no firefox support, i think its 
quite understandable.
Well, these are my thoughts for now, as i realised i'm talking too much about things which are obvious. 
Best regards,
Rob
