[Electronics-talk] Computer Usage For Deaf Persons

[Christopher Chaltain]

I'm not deaf, so maybe I'm missing something, but what accessibility 
problems does a deaf person have using a computer? I think Windows has 
an option to provide visual dialogs instead of some of the warning 
beeps. I guess videos would need to be captioned, but I think this is up 
to the video provider, and I don't see this as equivalent to a screen 
reading program like JAWS.
