[Blindtlk] Interesting Service

[Mark Tardif]

Hello fellow Federationists.  

I’m sure many of you remember the article in the Monitor a few months ago about Microsoft’s new support services for those of us using assistive technology.  Well, I had a chance to use the service yesterday.  I had a problem with Windows Media Player crashing after a few seconds.  The person I connected with was courteous, knew her stuff, was obviously either American or Canadian, since her English was flawless, and she could work well with the assistive technology.  So I am just singing their praises on our lists and encouraging anyone having problems with Microsoft products to avail themselves of the services.  Their phone number is 1-800-936-5900.  They are even available on weekends.  Take care.
