[gui-talk] [nfbcs] opinions needd

[albert griffith]

To add to what Curtis has said I suggest people call ahead to arrange a
meeting with a person at a store when it's convenient such as an off time
when there aren't apt to be so many customers.  I've had great results with
this approach.

Elizabeth:

The choice of what computer is to buy is as individualistic as the choice of
which suit to where<smile>.

Having said that, I would say that a Netbook computer will meet your needs
as far as email and word processing are concerned, but don't really expect
to do anything hefty with such a small machine.  Before buying anything, you
really need to put your hand on the unit, try out the keyboard, and listen
to the audio that is generated through the internal speakers (assuming you
want to use them).  I myself do not yet have a Netbook, and I am not
particularly interested in acquiring one just yet<smile>.  The reason I am
not interested is that I prefer a somewhat larger keyboard, and I like
entering JAWS commands through the numeric keypad.  For the laptop I use, I
always carry an external numeric keypad because that is my preference.

As you doubtless can imagine, opinions are just that--opinions.  You need to
filter opinions through your own personal set of opinions and make the
decision that is best for you.

Cordially,

Curtis Chong
