That is fine then Barbra.  I have no problem with that but last thing I would  
have wanted was to do so and particularly to yourself who has indeed offered me 
a lot of support on mobile phones.

  Eleanor, just trying to lighten the mood on a dull Monday afternoon, I wasn't 
implying I had taken offence at your remarks!

    Sorry Barbra you misunderstood me.  What I thought I said was that the only 
reason I could see in your particular case in having the minitor was in 
situations where you needed a sighted person to see what was going on and 
therefore requiring a monitor.  If others misinterpreted what I said to Barbra 
I would like that feedback from you too because I would not be wishing to cause 
offence or making anyone out to be stupid, rather it would be an opportunity 
for me to consider more carefully how I am phraisjing things.

      Hi Eleanor

      I don't think even I would be stupid enough to ask a sighted person to 
look at a monitor which was not there!

        The isssues will arise when you have a sighted person at the computer 
and they want to see what is going on, other than that, why not.  You have an 
excellent reason why you want to do this.  After all I am sure you have heard 
of those TV receivers for blind people (not possibly discosntinued) and they 
looked a bit like large transister radios.  I am one myself for having the 
visual thing but that said I used one of those TV receivers at a period in my 
life when it suited me.

          If it works, then why not recommend it? I have a new PC and as the 
old one has too many issues to try and sell but still in good working order, I 
want to hook it up just for trying out new software for usability before I clog 
up the new PC with it. Also might use for downloading, this way keeps the new 
PC clean and a bit safer. What issues might there possibly be with no monitor?

          I really thought that was a dumb question!

            Hi Barbra.

            Not at all, a lot of blind people do this but I personally don't 
recommend this.  Windows will expect to see a graphics card installed in your 
system, but if there is no monitor connected to the card, Windows shouldn't 
throw a wobbly.

              Hi

              This is probably a stupid question, so please don't think me a 
dunce for asking! I just want to confirm I am right before I do anything.

              Am I correct in thinking that you can't run a desktop PC with a 
set of speakers only and no monitor connected?
