Ok, tom, and others the usage of a screen reader, which gives out audio output to let a blind person hear what is being read is most certainly audio related, how do you expect a person to use the audio products/ other things that work with audio products such as winamp and the web with out using a product that has audio output? not trying to start a fight or argument session here but am trying to enlighten everyone on the possibility that screen readers use audio to comunicate the information on screen to blind people. Sighted people use their eyes to astablish the usage of products and services which blind people use a screen reader to enjoy their internet experiences/ other hobbies they partake in.

If that's the case, then I'd suggest you identify yourself as such when making such a statement. Otherwise, you might just be taken as a moderator want to be and either ignored or criticized. That's just my advice. BTW, I agree that the post in question was off topic, and I don't have any problem with you pointing that out. As you know though, PC audio is a pretty pervasive topic, so I think a lot of leniency is called for on such a list, and in general, I think it's been a pretty lenient list. I don't have a lot of patience though for people who think absolutely everything is fair game for this list just because I use a screen reader which happens to use my sound card. Ditto for people who won't submit to moderation. -- Christopher chalt...@gmail.com -----Original Message----- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Tom Sent: Sunday, June 20, 2010 5:42 PM To: pc-audio@pc-audio.org Subject: Re: internet 8 The subject is related to Internet Explorer and a screen reader.
