<body>Hello,
<div><br /><div>So I'm in a situation where I'm going to have surgery which has a high success rate, but there is a chance of retinal detachment which could leave me with no sight. I've been relying on ZoomText since I started working in I T and have been doing system admin work the past 14 years. This involves manageing server and network infrastructure VMware ESXi, SAN storage, firewalls, switches, etc.
</div><div>Considering what is in front of me, I thought I'd start learning JAWS in case the worst happens so at least I'll still be able to work. However, it seems almost everything I use daily is not accessible. So far, I've learned the basics and can get around all the Microsoft stuff without looking at the monitor. I spend 90% of the day accessing remote systems though and JAWS is all about reading things locally. Only a small number of web interfaces are usable for the various things I have to manage. Not even PuTTY works correctly. And RDP? Forget about it.
</div><div>Is anyone here been successful at doing this type of work with JAWS?</div></div><div><br /></div><div>Thanks and hoping for some encouraging news!</div><div><br /></div><div>Brian</div></body></html>
