I've been reading a lot of good things about fedora, so my plan was to try it out in a VM before I do anything else. Trouble is, the media writer util doesn't seem to be accessible on windows with NVDA at all, so I'm just curious if fedora's still an option for blind folks? Or, even better and I know this is quite a broad topic, but if anyone has any OS recommendations that they think work particularly well, then please do let me know! I've heard good things about arch, which is the second one on my list if you will, any thoughts? Thanks for any help, Daniel
