Hi Matt, Alan Peter and anyone else interested Thanks for your offers of help.
I don't want to turn away offers of help, but anyone volunteering must understand that us visually impaired lot can be, well, exceedingly trying at times. There is still a lot of institutalised VIP that able bodied people can find difficult to deal with sometimes. That being said, you must also remember that whatever information you are going to impart, the words "just click here" is, ahem, useless! I'd suggest that the best thing to do is to set up a Ubuntu Gnome based installation on your laptop / desktop with accessability enabled, have the screen turned off, or covered, and get used to navigating around using the keyboard shortcuts. The weiki pages at http://live.gnome.org/orca is a good place to start for any research. Oh, and you can't be allergic or have a phobia about dogs <smiles>.
