 Who ever does it make sure it includes imfo about how to use the computer and Jaws and maybe window eyes, please!
Always wondered how that group worked.

I completely agree, we should have a Ravelry chat. I'm a Ravelry power user, but I navigate visually because my version of JAWS is so ludicrously out of date it doesn't read the internet anymore.

But, as you may have seen from my email, I'm getting a new laptop (with the latest version of JAWS) here in a couple of months.

So, we have a couple of choices, someone else can volunteer to host the chat so we can have it sooner, or you all can wait for a long time until I get my new laptop and then I can (gasp) actually host one of these here chat things I've been organizin'.

Which would you all prefer?
