Hello,
My name is Mike Mason.
My background has been in software development.
I worked for IBM as a staff software engineer until 2004 - now retired.
.
Computing for the blind is a significant interest for me
and the idea of being able to recover and restore systems
independently as a blind person is something which matters to me a
great deal as we have no sighted help in the house.
Many thanks,
Mike.

Hello.
This is a test message to the vi-tech-testers list to see if people
receive it. perhaps we can all reply with a short introduction or
something to test functionality and to ensure everyone's on board?
My name's Mo and all of you have doubtless seen me around on various
lists. My backround's in PC hardware with over 10 years experience
building/recycling computers, as well as server administration and
networking wiring etc. I spend my time reviewing products, providing
technical support and custom building/recycling computers for
people, and providing advice on various hardware for the blind. I'm
also a huge fan of the raspberry PI, and the linux operating system
and very supportive of any open source project. Projects i've worked
on include the Raspberry VI project to make the raspberry Pi
accessible, Vinux an accessible version of linux for the blind, and
working with Eset, Avast and Natwest to make their applications
accessible among others. enough of me... over to you.
Mo.
