Hi,
  Ok, I am really trying not to be a pain here, but I am just a bit confused 
and am honestly just trying to ensure I am staying on topic and am 
understanding the list. So if I am clear, questions/clarifications/bug 
checks for IOS, BO, Windows 8, web browsing... are fine as long as  you say 
something like phone, iPhone, Windows Phone, iPad, iPod..., but asking 
questions/clarifications/bug issues with JAWS or non-iDevice computers is 
not, is this a correct understanding? Sorry again, honestly, this is not 
attempting to be a snarky remark it is just pure confusion on my part since 
none of the questions I have seen on things like VO gestures, web 
surfing..., apps with iPad and iPod which are not phones... are all seeming 
to be  fine.

  My expectation of the computer science list was that it is for computer 
science majors and folks in that field. Is this a wrong understanding 
because if so, I am happy to join that list and take these types of 
questions over there and not clog up emails with  JAWS issues.
Have a great rest of the weekend all and thanks for your patience with my 
questions/confusion:)!
Chris
