I'm blind and find Mandrake a great distribution for me.
It has nice console tools and utilities for me, and KDE
makes a nice environment for wife and son.
Many distributions already come with EmacSpeak. I'd
like to see Mandrake also include this. An install
option using Speakup would also make life easier.
Brltty would also make a nice addition along with a
few of the drivers for specific synths.
Mandrake is a popular distribution among the blind
and we don't even use KDE. <grin>
With very little effort, Mandrake could become the
distribution of choice among the blind and disabled.
Just my two cents
