V. Raman" X-Tel: (415) 962 3945 List-Id: For those of us who have grown up in the UNIX world, the various tools to use for reading news, mail, and performing the various day to day tasks are obvious. However, to the average blind user who has been restricted to DOS, it might be useful to be able to look at a document that outlines details of the computing environments that experienced users employ. This might be a useful section to have in the access FAQ, and would serve as a good starting point to introduce the dos-impaired to the powers and wonders of a real OS. -- Best Regards, --raman Adobe Systems Tel: 1 (415) 962 3945 (B-1 115) Advanced Technology Group Fax: 1 (415) 962 6063 (E 1-160) 1585 Charleston Road Email: raman@adobe.com Mountain View, CA 94039 -7900 raman@cs.cornell.edu http://www-atg/People/Raman.html (Internal To Adobe) http://www.cs.cornell.edu/Info/People/raman/raman.html (Cornell) Disclaimer: The opinions expressed are my own and in no way should be taken as representative of my employer, Adobe Systems Inc. ____________________________________________________________________________
