Hello everyone. I had written to the k d e accessibility list and welcome anyone's thoughts about different desktops. I wrote to kde-accessibility@xxxxxxx I am a totally blind computer user, familiar with the following platforms: windows Macintosh, Tiger and up ubuntu linux Fedora linux and as for desktops with linux I have used gnome and mate. I hasten to add I am no programmer, just someone who write's text files, checks e-mail, and reads articles on the internet. Since I use orca and use keyboard commands and no mouse, for a total, what is an advantage of one desktop over another? I would welcome anyone's thoughts as to why one mightt favor the k d e desktop over another. I had thought that preferring one desktop over another would mainly have to do with its appearance for sighted users. Also, why is the k d e desktop not yet as accessible as others?
