A very funny video (completely off-topic with link)

JAWS and NVDA are two screen-reading speech synthesizers used by blind people like myself. You could call this the battle of the crappy speech synthesizers. Listening to this, it is very funny, though I have no idea about the visuals. For the record, I am currently using JAWS.

Thanks blind Guy. I enjoyed it.

Probably not as much as you, but it was funny. I've worked tech support for several years. A couple of times I've worked with blind folks who use these readers and it's always fascinating to me how they work around what I'd consider a major inconvenience at a minimum.

Three cheers for the technology that lets you participate here!

Stunted.
