Hi

And those who want to help, want the requests to be polite and specific.
This aggressive demanding style will not get you what you want.

I'd had waited and saw that you hadn't been responded to, so I gave you
answers to each of your questions.  I then gave you a dose of your own
medicine with your final demand.  To which you couldn't acknowledge
those questions I had answered satisfactorily.

Regards


Gena

>>>I'm new in Linux. My questions are:
>>gj:  Welcome
>>>
>>>1. How do I download Linux.
>>gj:  Umm, don't know don't have a crystal ball to see what browser etc
>>your using.  As with many of your questions below, try looking at the
>>speakup site http://linux-speakup.org
>>
>>>2. Which version do I need.
>>gj:  The latest might be a good start.  If your referring to which
>>distribution then that's a matter of personal choice.  Again you'll see
>>more on the speakup site.
>>>3. How do I download speakfreely for linux and windows, I got the jaws
>>>scripts.
>>gj:  Do you mean where?  Try looking on the speakup site's goodies
>>directory.
>>
>>>4. Does speakup work with Braille.
>>gj:  Yes speakup will work along side brltty but speakup doesn't have
>>braille support built in.
>>
>>>5. Are there software synthesizers available for linux.
>>gj:  Yes, but none of them will work with speakup.  Again read the stuff
>>on the speakup site.
>>
>>>6. How closely related tounix is linux inits command structure?
>>gj:  Again I need a crystal ball.  I think that your asking about Unix,
>>well its very similar.
>>
>>>7. When can I go to a site to learn linux, how to install it and get a
>>>computer up and running?
>>gj:  Again a good starting point is the speakup site, if your concerned
>>with installing a talking distribution.  But why not use your friendly
>>google search engine for non blinux user related sites.
>>
>>>
>>>Urgently seeking info, thanks.
>>>
>>gj:  So why are you waisting my time asking questions that you can gain
>>from the speakup site, which you must be aware of as you've joined the
