I'm having some difficulty figuring out the real benefits of this idea since all computers except netbooks have at least one optical drive. This kind of idea might work all right if GW had a very small customer base. Aaron had a blog entry quite a while ago which described the method used to produce the cd for each order. Needless to say he's not copying each disk on his computer. There's a good bit of automation in the process. Your request presents many difficulties.They'd have to keep an individual file for each customer who sent in their own preferred media type. Then the process would be manual. I can't imagine they'd at all want to be responsible for the property of customers. It makes no sense for any business to use their valuable storage space to store items that don't belong to them. You're asking them to spend a lot of time on each order because each copy would have to be done manually. I'm sure some business analyst could figure out how much all this would cost. There are people who believe that screen readers are already too expensive. It's not reasonable for us to expect the price to stay the same when we ask for things that increase GW Micro's cost. It takes time now to fill the orders. It seems to me that if any of us want the WE installation on other media we can do that ourselves. ----- Original Message ----- From: Cheree Heppe To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, August 18, 2009 4:11 PM Subject: window-eyes on various memory media
Cheree Heppe here: I would like to receive Window-Eyes upgrades or the next, latest and greatest on a memory stick or SD card. Why couldn't purchasers send the SD card in and get the data copied over, hot off the presses, if it proved costly or impractical for GW Micro to send memory storage types other than CD's? Think how easy it would be to tape an SD card to a folded letter in a business envelope. Regards, Cheree Heppe If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
