Kathleen, good for you for pulling the plug on your ailing microwave! Guess
you'll really have to get a new one, hopefully at somewhere like Best Buy.
Guess you'll soon be going shopping for one. Suspect you can get one for around
a hundred dollars, but you will have to have help putting braille labels onto
it. Don't know if you have a slate and stylus which can help you with that. I
think G.E. makes microwaves which have braille overlays available for them, and
locally owned stores as opposed to chain stores would have a better handle on
how to order those. Sure wish I could help beyond these few tiny tips.

Well my microwave decided to go out. And it went out in a very strange way. I
was sitting in the living room talking to a friend of mine on the phone and all
of a sudden I heard the microwave turn on. I didn't even touch it or anything.
It turned on all by itself. Then I turned it off. Anyway it kept turning on by
itself and I finally had to get it unplugged and I just got rid of it. A friend
of mine told me I could've had a fire in my apartment if I would've kept it
plugged in i'm not sure if I can justify the cost of the talking microwave
because I'm not really sure how big it is or anything. Especially since a lot of
these companies that sell stuff for the blind inflate the price is. And I really
don't think that's right either.

Thanks for letting us know how you like your microwave. This big Sears
one I have will probably go out one day, and I just might get one of
those. One question: What's T M O ? Is that a brand name or what?
