Well, its pretty easy to get started with Ubuntu Linux. I suggest just wait 
till  22 of April. On 22 Ubuntu Hardy  is being launched wich have latestest 
of all drivers and softwares including Orca screen reader.

Hi,
This sounds great. Now, once I get it, I would like to be as quick as I can
to avoid frustration. Where do we go to start learning commands and so on,
and will we be able to read those files on Windows at the same time?
Failing that, how do you recommend getting started when you have to learn
both the speech system and the operating system.

Thanks.
