great. I will do my best to look in. Is the conferencing software
easy to work with?

For those unaware, i host a weekly round table style program called
the Assistive Technology Show on Wednesday's between 7:00-9:00 PM,
EDT. The Assistive Technology Show is a forum for sharing
resources, getting questions answered and learning about new and
exciting assistive hardware/software/devices. On this week's
program, I'd like to give folks a chance to learn about switching to
the Mac -- experiences, frustrations and of course what it's like
after having made the leap. Given that everyone's experiences are
different, I'd like to get as many folks involved as possible. If
interested, please feel free to join me this Wednesday, between
7:00-9:00 PM, EDT. I use the Ventrilo voice conferencing software
to facilitate the show. Besides great voice quality, Ventrilo has
the advantage that both Windows and Mac versions exist. I've got
directions for downloading and configuring the client on the
Assistive Technology Show homepage and will be recording an audio
tutorial just as soon as I send this Email. For more info, please
see http://www.atmaine.com/atshow, or contact me via Email or
phone: (207) 512-2387.
If you're unable to make this week's program, but think it might be
of interest, check out the podcast available both from within the
iTunes store and on the Assistive Technology Show page mentioned
above. Below, I'm pasting the announcement for this week's show
which has been submitted to other lists.
I'm really excited about this week's program and hope to incorporate
as many experiences as possible.
Thanks,
Steve
Curious about all the hype surrounding the Mac and its built in
screen reader? Perhaps you've wondered how difficult the transition
from the Windows environment to the Mac really is. This week on the
Assistive Technology show, we present you with a round table
consisting of folks who have made the successful leap from Windows
to the Mac operating system. We'll discuss the obstacles they've
faced, the concerns they've had, the challenges they've overcome and
most importantly, the way they now feel having made the successful
transition.
As is the case with every show, there will be ample time to pose
questions, voice your own concerns and gain first hand knowledge
about the exciting Mac operating system.
For those unfamiliar with the Assistive Technology Show, it's a
weekly round table style program consisting of folks wanting to
learn something new, or with resources to share. Using the Ventrilo
voice conferencing software, participants have the ability to speak
directly with one another. When? The Assistive Technology Show
takes place every Wednesday between 7:00-9:00 PM, EDT. For those
unable to attend, the show is archived and podcasted. To join this
week's show, to learn more, or to access the podcast, please visit
the Assistive Technology Show home page at:http://www.atmaine.com/atshow
. Of course if you have any questions, please feel free to email me
at: [EMAIL PROTECTED] or call (207) 512-2387
I look forward to bringing you this week's edition of the Assistive
Technology Show!
Steve
