[BlindTlk] Acer laptop and other options

[Ericka]

Can you still hear the computer? I thought when you close the laptop shut off. I don’t plan to use an external keyboard.

The whole idea of being portable rather than carrying extra stuff around is what I’m going for.

I told the lady I didn’t wanna big screen because it didn’t matter I was only going to see pictures somebody sent. I can see the icons but can’t read anything so it would be a waste of time.
