-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 According to John covici: # I disagree -- making a mainstream computer blind friendly costs quite # a lot by someone -- its not just voice synthesis -- its getting the # right info to the synthesizer which costs so much because Microsoft # does not provide the appropriate hooks in theirOS to do it simply and # because applications are not always well behaved -- look at the # trouble they had to do to to make Microsoft Word accessible -- it took # quite a number of man years to do that. Proving again my point. Microsoft should be the one to make their own products blind-friendly. Any cost involved in this undertaking would be offset by the overbloated price of the Windows OS and their office suite and by the extremely deep pockets of Bill Gates.
