Jonathan and Others;
Look at it this way.  A text version of a tutorial would be just like a
deaf blind person sitting in on a live demo of the unit, with an
inturpretor.  With the text version, the computer or Braille note is the
enturpretor.
I have a hearing problem myself and have a great interest in this
subject.  Put yourself in our shoes and put on a set of ear plugs and
try to learn some new feature.  
It is almost like not being able to watch a movie because of lack of
captioning.

Hello, List:

You know me and my two cents worth, <grin>.  I realize, Jonathan, 
what you are saying -- a person can access the User's Guide to 
find out about a product.  However, a tutorial determines whether 
a person can afford, or can use the upcoming upgrade.  If a 
person hasn't upgraded yet, there is no way of accessing the 
Users Guide to read what is there.  With an Audio Tutorial, any 
hearing person can access it, to decide whether or not the 
upgrade will work for them.  My two cents, can I have change 
please?  <smile>.
