Re: [Audyssey] Important notice.
Well, eventually I suspect you will need to do so at some point in time as Microsoft is introducing allot of new technologies in Vista like the managed SAPI support, built in speech recognition, .NET Framework 3, DirectX 10.0, and a bunch of new stuff that is not available on earlier versions of Windows. One thing that immediately comes to mind is support for the new hd blue ray dvds. MS has already made a statement only Vista and later versions will support the new dvds, and will not be making the technology backward compatible with 2000, 2003, and XP. Apparently, some of this is a clear attempt by MS to make a totally new generation of Windows as different from XP as 95 was to 3.11. Cheers. ___ Gamers mailing list ..

Re: [Audyssey] Important notice.
Hi Shaun, Light scribe is a feature of very recent dvd and cd burner designs which allows you to flip the disk over and directly burn an image on to the disks surface using your burners laser rather than using the more traditional paper and ink labels. As a result the disks will have a more professional look and feel since rather than paper the image is burned on the disk just like manufactured music cds, dvds, etc. It isn't something likely that we in the blind community would notice but once I come up with digital labels and stuff for the USA Games products my disks I ship out for Raceway, Montezuma's Revenge, would look allot more professional and slicker than if I stuck an ink label on it and dropped it in the mail. Besides the main reason I got the new burner was rather than being able to burn single layered dvds I can use the newer double density dvds which gives me 9 GB of storage space per disk and not 4. ___ Gamers mailing list ..

[Audyssey] Windows Vista
Hi Kim and all, I am approving this topic as I am certain many gamers are going to be asking the same kinds of questions. Overview Windows Vista is a totally new operating system, and is the first operating system to offer a fully 3D graphical operating environment Microsoft has named Windows Arrow. The new Windows Explorer can not only burn data cds and music cds it has been updated to burn data dvds, your home vidios and pictures to dvds, and with Windows media center you can play your dvds and edit media content. Windows Vista has an all new firewall which allows you to block all ports you are not using to prevent hackers, crackers, trogen horses, and other attempts to access your data and content remotely. Windows Vista comes with the .NET Framework 3.0, DirectX 10.0, and Windows Media 11, Internet Explorer 7.0, Outlook Express 7.0, Windows Media Center, and a bunch of other new stuff never seen before. In addition Windows Vista is the first and only operating system that supports the playing of the new blue ray high definition dvds that have just came out on the market in the USA. According to press releases from MS only Vista and newer operating systems will support the blue ray high def disk technology. Since .NET framework 3.0 is now a core component of the operating system rather than an add on Microsoft has bundled the managed DirectX 10 and Managed SAPI support for .NET enabled games and applications right out of the box. No extra software required. Good news for Monty and Raceway fans which are already using the .NET technologies as the core component of those games. Apparently Windows Vista has also intruduced some built in speech recognition into the operating system which allows you to voice dictate emails in Outlook Express, and other documents using notepad wordpad, etc.. I've read there is suppose to be some new features with Vista that allows you to interface with the MS XBox 360, and do some special things if you have an XBox as well. One other cool feature I read about is Windows Vista is installed from images rather than a triditional setup file so the os is litterally extracted on to your hard drive, and ran and configured from that point. Here is a general list of requirements for running Vista with Windows Arrow disabled which I think most blind users would likely wish to do. You need at least a 40 MB hard drive, 512 MB of ram, 800 MHZ processor, a dvd disk drive, and a video card that supports 3D axcelerated graphics. If you want all the really cool blue ray support and the Windows Arrow desktop experience we are talking a gig of memory and somethinglike a 1.2 GHZ processor, 3D graphics card, and so on.

Re: [Audyssey] Important notice.
Hi Jim, Yes, anyone seaking to update to Vista needs a fairly modern PC to even run it. Especially, with the new 3D desktop Windows arrow. If you run Vista with the classic XP desktop you can ssqueeze with 800 MHZ and 512 MB of ram. If you run it using the 3D desktop you will need to basically double that system requirement. It also needs 40 MB of hard drive space, and 64 MB or better of vidio card memory. In short Vista is a system resource hog, but on modern computers it will do fine. Just won't run on anything manufactured before 2003 or so. Also JFW 4.x will absolutely not run on Vista. Not even JFW 8. Vista is a completely new animal and needs to be treated as such. ___ Gamers mailing list ..

Re: [Audyssey] Important notice.
Hi Josh, Well, I don't think most users will want to upgrade right away anyway. The accessibility for Vista just isn't really out there yet. There is WE 6.1 beta, and Windows marrater, but Jaws users will have to wait for Jaws next major release to have Vista support, and even then if it is anything like WE the accessibility isn't 100% altogether there yet. Probably needs a couple of screen reader upgrades to get the bugs worked out of the new Vista and accessibility Vista has. While Vista has MSAA backward compatibility it's using something new for all of it's applications like I.E. 7 and Outlook Express 7 to name a few. All of that said I think Vista is a good step in the right direction, and from having tinkered with it in the past using narrater I think it is a really cool os, and wanted a copy of my own to work on, play with, and get use to even though access isn't 100% ready just yet. I still have XP on my laptop so it's not like if everything blows up I won't have a working system on hand. Although, I don't think I will have much problems once Window eyes 6.1 full comes out later this spring. ___ Gamers mailing list ..

Re: [Audyssey] Important notice.
Hi Damien, Well, the .NET Framework and .NET applications is something everyone is going to have to get use to sooner or later seeing as Microsoft has been promoting it since 2002, and has made it manditory for Vista, and beyond. Honestly, I don't see any systems using 98 and above having much problems with .NET provided the app is .NET Framework 2.0 compatible. .NET 3.0 apps I believe will only run on 2000 XP, 2003, and Vista so 9x users are going to have to update soon or be left in the dust technology wize. The entire point of .NET though is to bridge the gap between operating systems and insure the app you run on Vista is still compatible with 2000, XP, etc without having to recompile, reset build flags, and a bunch of other stuff. Just install the framework, and the app and away you go. Even though I am soon to have Framework 3.0 I will still be supporting .NET 2.0 for a while to keep older systems in the loop and not alienate those with less up to date systems. Now, that MS has officially made .NET a core component of Vista you will see more and more .NET enabled applications, and old VB 6 programmers and anyone using old school languages will be left in the dust unless they update there skills to VB.NET, C#.NET, C++.NET, etc. Also don't be to suprised if you begin seeing allot more Vista features popping up in new apps such as menu strips rather than menu bars, and other new changes in the look and feel of newer applications. damien c. sadler - head of x-sight interactive wrote: because i don't like the fact that it uses the .net framework, or that some systems still don't work with the .net framework. regards, damien. - Original Message - From: Gerry Leary [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Thursday, February 22, 2007 12:21 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Important notice.

[Audyssey] goblin versus insain scientist
HI all If I'm correct the goblin in sarah will be much trickier than the insain scientist in sod. You can easily kill the insain scientist And in this way avoid him taking your items. The similarity between the goblin and the insane scientist: its both creatures that will rob you. The goblin robs you of your money and the insain scientist robs you of your items such as med kits, mines etc. If I understand the manual correctly, the goblin will aparate after stealing your money so you won't be able to trace him once he have disappeared. The insane scientist in sod will never teleport. Once it took some of your items it will try to run away but its still possible to follow it and kill it to get your items back but once the goblin in sarah vanished after stealing your money, its not possible to trace him. ___ Gamers mailing list ..

Re: [Audyssey] Tecno Shock
Try to explore the rooms and press the switches. Try a bit more before asking. Think about the people who don't have tried the game out yet. I don't think they want to know how to complete all levels before they have tried the game first. If you really want to know how to complete all levels, you could try to contact some people off the list and ask them. I'll try to help you, but only off the list. I think there has been too many tips, spoilers and hint on this list to that game. If you have MSN, we can just talk about the game there.

Re: [Audyssey] Important notice.
Hi, I am pretty sure MS will be releasing a DirectX 10 and .NET Framework 3 for Windows 2000 and above, but Windows 9x is basically scrapped as far as MS is concerned. There is already a developers only release of .NET 3 for XP, and I don't see devs jumping on 3.0 so soon after 2.0 was released last fall. Even after I get Vista up and running I'll be installing the older sdks to insure backwards compatibility with the older operating systems.

Re: [Audyssey] Important notice.
Hi Damien, I have no idea where you have gathered your information about the .NET Framework, but it is very much incorrect. The .NET Framework itself is completely accessible. As for the development ides VS 2003 and VS 2005 are also accessible provided you are using a fairly modern version of Jaws or Window Eyes. If you are using something like Jaws 4 or 5 forget it. With Jaws 7-8 or Window Eyes 5.5-6.0 then VS .NET is fine. I'd say through end user experience Window eyes support for Visual Studio .NET is superior to the half-hearted attempt Jaws is using. As far as stibility from .NET Framework 2.0 onward it has been pretty stable. Just because you may have had some end user bad experiences, can happen with any piece of software, doesn't make it true the software is deffective or buggy most of the time. In fact, my experience in the field is I have very little problem with the framework when end users were not running mised matched versioning, and wasn't awareyt he framework needed to be installed prier to installing a managed component for DirectX, SAPI, and some of the newer technologies MS has come out with. Bottomline I don't know what flaws you speak of, and I run several Framework based apps with absolutely no trouble at all. As for Vista's classic option it resorts to a XP style desktop. The truly classic desktop option you are thinking of no longer really exists as far as I am awayre. However, you can turn off the Windows Arrow 3D desktop which is a major accessibility hangup at the moment which I will certainly be doing. damien c. sadler - head of x-sight interactive wrote: i don't know why everyone is getting so uptight about .net. i mean, it's new technology, so it'll probably have many flaws until at least two or three years of upgrading, and like xp, vista should have a classic option. yes, speech technology may advance, but with the new accessibility engine people are having to learn from scratch again, not to mention also having to switch to .net which is already not accessible. ___ Gamers mailing list ..

Re: [Audyssey] Windows Vista
Hi Damien, First, the answer is no. You don't have to run Vista from the dvd drive. It can be installed or extracted on to your hard drive and run just like any prier version of Windows. In fact Vista Home Basic and Premier are setup to do this by default. Second, keep in mind Microsoft has created several different versions of Windows Vista, and each is a little bit different, and comes with different applications depending on what you are buying it for. Here is a quick run down of the most common versions. Windows Vista Home Basic. This version is comparable to XP Home edition. It is a very stripped down version of Vista, and comes with just the basics. Should be good enough for the average computer user. Windows Vista Home Premiere. This version is like Home Basic above except it includes allot more multimedia applications and features. This is comparable to XP Media center. Windows Vista Business. This version comes equip with server side applications, and apps sutible for small or large business and colleges. Is comparable to Windows XP Pro. Finally, Windows Vista Ultament. This version has everything plus some extras not even available to Home or Business versions. This is comparable to Windows XP Enterprise. You should note all versions listed above come in 32 bit and 64 bit versions. They also come in retail boxed or OEM versions. If you do the math there is currently about 16 full versions of Vista, and several upgrade versions to upgrade XP to Vista. So there is lots of options to choose from if you are buying to update your system. Personally, I chose the Vista Home Premiere as it was both in my price range, and it comes with some extra bells and wistles not available on Home Basic. ___ Gamers mailing list ..

Re: [Audyssey] Windows Vista
i admire those folk who can just upgrade no problems and not be a little apprehensive about it at first. i just couldn't do that. if i know that something is going to depend on a whole feature that i know doesn't work now, i'm obviously going to be a bit freaked out on upgrading. maybe i will upgrade eventually, maybe not. i suppose it depends on whether i get a computer of my own, or what the college decide to do, whichever comes first. i may be getting the machine i'm using, so this'll be my own, so if the college decide to upgrade to vista before i leave then i suppose i'm stuck with vista. regards, damien - Original Message - From: Dark [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Thursday, February 22, 2007 8:56 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Windows Vista to any Hal users, in a recent chat with Dolphin, i'm informed that Hal V8.0 wil be compatable with Vista, but it won't be released for a while (Earliest September 207).

Overview Windows Vista is a totally new operating system, and is the first operating system to offer a fully 3D graphical operating environment Microsoft has named Windows Arrow. The new Windows Explorer can not only burn data cds and music cds it has been updated to burn data dvds, your home vidios and pictures to dvds, and with Windows media center you can play your dvds and edit media content. Windows Vista has an all new firewall which allows you to block all ports you are not using to prevent hackers, crackers, trogen horses, and other attempts to access your data and content remotely. Windows Vista comes with the .NET Framework 3.0, DirectX 10.0, and Windows Media 11, Internet Explorer 7.0, Outlook Express 7.0, Windows Media Center, and a bunch of other new stuff never seen before. In addition Windows Vista is the first and only operating system that supports the playing of the new blue ray high definition dvds that have just came out on the market in the USA. According to press releases from MS only Vista and newer operating systems will support the blue ray high def disk technology. Since .NET framework 3.0 is now a core component of the operating system rather than an add on Microsoft has bundled the managed DirectX 10 and Managed SAPI support for .NET enabled games and applications right out of the box. No extra software required. Good news for Monty and Raceway fans which are already using the .NET technologies as the core component of those games. Apparently Windows Vista has also intruduced some built in speech recognition into the operating system which allows you to voice dictate emails in Outlook Express, and other documents using notepad wordpad, etc.. I've read there is suppose to be some new features with Vista that allows you to interface with the MS XBox 360, and do some special things if you have an XBox as well. One other cool feature I read about is Windows Vista is installed from images rather than a triditional setup file so the os is litterally extracted on to your hard drive, and ran and configured from that point. Here is a general list of requirements for running Vista with Windows Arrow disabled which I think most blind users would likely wish to do. You need at least a 40 MB hard drive, 512 MB of ram, 800 MHZ processor, a dvd disk drive, and a video card that supports 3D axcelerated graphics. If you want all the really cool blue ray support and the Windows Arrow desktop experience we are talking a gig of memory and somethinglike a 1.2 GHZ processor, 3D graphics card, and so on.

oh. well i suppose that calms my thoughts about it down slightly. regards, damien - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Thursday, February 22, 2007 11:48 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Windows Vista Hi Damien, First, the answer is no. You don't have to run Vista from the dvd drive. It can be installed or extracted on to your hard drive and run just like any prier version of Windows. In fact Vista Home Basic and Premier are setup to do this by default. Second, keep in mind Microsoft has created several different versions of Windows Vista, and each is a little bit different, and comes with different applications depending on what you are buying it for. Here is a quick run down of the most common versions. Windows Vista Home Basic. This version is comparable to XP Home edition. It is a very stripped down version of Vista, and comes with just the basics. Should be good enough for the average computer user. Windows Vista Home Premiere. This version is like Home Basic above except it includes allot more multimedia applications and features. This is comparable to XP Media center. Windows Vista Business. This version comes equip with server side applications, and apps sutible for small or large business and colleges. Is comparable to Windows XP Pro. Finally, Windows Vista Ultament. This version has everything plus some extras not even available to Home or Business versions. This is comparable to Windows XP Enterprise. You should note all versions listed above come in 32 bit and 64 bit versions. They also come in retail boxed or OEM versions. If you do the math there is currently about 16 full versions of Vista, and several upgrade versions to upgrade XP to Vista. So there is lots of options to choose from if you are buying to update your system. Personally, I chose the Vista Home Premiere as it was both in my price range, and it comes with some extra bells and wistles not available on Home Basic. ___ Gamers mailing list ..

Re: [Audyssey] Important notice.
i have run four laptops and two desktops that have all had one issue or another with the .net framework and accessibility. it always tends to be the gui side of things. i was running che's railracer game fine before i got this new system, although it was the registration dialogs and the track editor programs that i had problems with. on this system whenever i run any .net based app it comes up with one of those annoying error dialogs claiming that the program has encountered a problem and needs to close. as for the vs.net, again, on all systems of running it except on one of my friend's computers, it would always crash and say it wasn't responding, whereas on the friend's computer jaws was having a problem with it, saying that there were errors in the script and acting up that way. so on the six computers i've been using to run .net apps in general, and the four computers i used to try out vs.net, it has always acted up one way or another. regards, damien - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Thursday, February 22, 2007 11:28 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Important notice. Hi Damien, I have no idea where you have gathered your information about the .NET Framework, but it is very much incorrect. The .NET Framework itself is completely accessible. As for the development ides VS 2003 and VS 2005 are also accessible provided you are using a fairly modern version of Jaws or Window Eyes. If you are using something like Jaws 4 or 5 forget it. With Jaws 7-8 or Window Eyes 5.5-6.0 then VS .NET is fine. I'd say through end user experience Window eyes support for Visual Studio .NET is superior to the half-hearted attempt Jaws is using. As far as stibility from .NET Framework 2.0 onward it has been pretty stable. Just because you may have had some end user bad experiences, can happen with any piece of software, doesn't make it true the software is deffective or buggy most of the time. In fact, my experience in the field is I have very little problem with the framework when end users were not running mised matched versioning, and wasn't awareyt he framework needed to be installed prier to installing a managed component for DirectX, SAPI, and some of the newer technologies MS has come out with. Bottomline I don't know what flaws you speak of, and I run several Framework based apps with absolutely no trouble at all. As for Vista's classic option it resorts to a XP style desktop. The truly classic desktop option you are thinking of no longer really exists as far as I am awayre. However, you can turn off the Windows Arrow 3D desktop which is a major accessibility hangup at the moment which I will certainly be doing. damien c. sadler - head of x-sight interactive wrote: i don't know why everyone is getting so uptight about .net. i mean, it's new technology, so it'll probably have many flaws until at least two or three years of upgrading, and like xp, vista should have a classic option. yes, speech technology may advance, but with the new accessibility engine people are having to learn from scratch again, not to mention also having to switch to .net which is already not accessible. ___ Gamers mailing list ..

One thing that immediately comes to mind is support for the new hd blue ray dvds. MS has already made a statement only Vista and later versions will support the new dvds, and will not be making the technology backward compatible with 2000, 2003, and XP.

Re: [Audyssey] Windows Vista
Hi Damien, Well, if all else fails there is always Narrator. that thing sucks compared to Jaws or Window Eyes but it is garenteed to provide some basic access to Outlook Express, I.E., and other Microsoft products. So we aren't talking a total lack of access just not the quality of access we are use to. However, Win Eyes 6.1 is a high quality screen reader and it does work with Vista which I will in all likely hood be using that. damien c. sadler - head of x-sight interactive wrote: i admire those folk who can just upgrade no problems and not be a little apprehensive about it at first. i just couldn't do that. if i know that something is going to depend on a whole feature that i know doesn't work now, i'm obviously going to be a bit freaked out on upgrading. maybe i will upgrade eventually, maybe not. i suppose it depends on whether i get a computer of my own, or what the college decide to do, whichever comes first. i may be getting the machine i'm using, so this'll be my own, so if the college decide to upgrade to vista before i leave then i suppose i'm stuck with vista. ___ Gamers mailing list ..

Re: [Audyssey] Fw: Trivia time #32
Hi Damien, Actually, taking a photo with a camera makes the most logical sense. Think about it. First, when someone takes a picture it is commonly called taking a shot or shooting his or her picture. Second, the film must be developed in a dark room using chemicals which takes around5 minutes in a dark room give or take a few. Finally, when a photo is finished the logical thing to do is hang it on the wall. damien c. sadler - head of x-sight interactive wrote: how does that explain the shot, the water and the hanging? regards, damien ___ Gamers mailing list ..

[Audyssey] .NET Framework was Important notice.
Hi Damien, I'm very interested in your experience with .NET as I am not only a end user but a developer using the technology in many of my projects. I haven't experienced those specific issues you were talking about here, but it sounds to me as if you were running a mismatched version of app and framework or were missing some other core component the app requires. Perhaps, I can solve your issue. First, can you list the titles of the applications that failed to run with the .NET Framework? Second, what version of the framework are you running. Anything prier to 2.0 I personally don't recommend unless a developer has specified it is absolutely necessary that you don't upgrade to 2.0. Third, did you check to see if any other components were missing? For example, when STFC came out everyone was getting that error, and it turned out while they were installing DirectX 9 they had not installed the DirectX 9 version required for .NET Framework applications. Which is the reason I now do web setup installs for DirectX and specify right off on my FAQ page install .NET and run this file which will sort out which version you are missing and needs updated. Fourth, as for Jaws did you install the VS scripts. If so I can tell you that was sort of a mistake. I found Jaws ran better with VS 2005 without scripts than with the ones FS offers. Seriously, I believe I could have written better ones myself, but my Jaws scripting skills are pretty rusty from not being used much over the last three years or so. Finally, I don't think the issues you experienced under your current os will happen under Vista. The .NET Framework is now a core component of the os, and the DirectX that ships with Vista, DirectX 10, has the managed libraries for DirectX already included. Vista also comes with a managed version of SAPI for .NET applications, and well allot of the extras you had to update in 2000, 2003, and XP is just there out of the box. I'm going to be installing my .NET Framework apps as soon as Vista gets loaded on this machine, and I will certainly let you know if they ran as expected. I seriously doubt any issues with Monty, STFC, or Raceway as everything should be up to date and be there already. damien c. sadler - head of x-sight interactive wrote: i have run four laptops and two desktops that have all had one issue or another with the .net framework and accessibility. it always tends to be the gui side of things. i was running che's railracer game fine before i got this new system, although it was the registration dialogs and the track editor programs that i had problems with. on this system whenever i run any .net based app it comes up with one of those annoying error dialogs claiming that the program has encountered a problem and needs to close. as for the vs.net, again, on all systems of running it except on one of my friend's computers, it would always crash and say it wasn't responding, whereas on the friend's computer jaws was having a problem with it, saying that there were errors in the script and acting up that way. so on the six computers i've been using to run .net apps in general, and the four computers i used to try out vs.net, it has always acted up one way or another. regards, damien ___ Gamers mailing list ..

Dark. - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Thursday, February 22, 2007 4:39 PM Subject: [Audyssey] Windows Vista Hi Kim and all, I am approving this topic as I am certain many gamers are going to be asking the same kinds of questions. Overview Windows Vista is a totally new operating system, and is the first operating system to offer a fully 3D graphical operating environment Microsoft has named Windows Arrow. The new Windows Explorer can not only burn data cds and music cds it has been updated to burn data dvds, your home vidios and pictures to dvds, and with Windows media center you can play your dvds and edit media content. Windows Vista has an all new firewall which allows you to block all ports you are not using to prevent hackers, crackers, trogen horses, and other attempts to access your data and content remotely. Windows Vista comes with the .NET Framework 3.0, DirectX 10.0, and Windows Media 11, Internet Explorer 7.0, Outlook Express 7.0, Windows Media Center, and a bunch of other new stuff never seen before. In addition Windows Vista is the first and only operating system that supports the playing of the new blue ray high definition dvds that have just came out on the market in the USA. According to press releases from MS only Vista and newer operating systems will support the blue ray high def disk technology. Since .NET framework 3.0 is now a core component of the operating system rather than an add on Microsoft has bundled the managed DirectX 10 and Managed SAPI support for .NET enabled games and applications right out of the box. No extra software required. Good news for Monty and Raceway fans which are already using the .NET technologies as the core component of those games. Apparently Windows Vista has also intruduced some built in speech recognition into the operating system which allows you to voice dictate emails in Outlook Express, and other documents using notepad wordpad, etc.. I've read there is suppose to be some new features with Vista that allows you to interface with the MS XBox 360, and do some special things if you have an XBox as well. One other cool feature I read about is Windows Vista is installed from images rather than a triditional setup file so the os is litterally extracted on to your hard drive, and ran and configured from that point. Here is a general list of requirements for running Vista with Windows Arrow disabled which I think most blind users would likely wish to do. You need at least a 40 MB hard drive, 512 MB of ram, 800 MHZ processor, a dvd disk drive, and a video card that supports 3D axcelerated graphics. If you want all the really cool blue ray support and the Windows Arrow desktop experience we are talking a gig of memory and somethinglike a 1.2 GHZ processor, 3D graphics card, and so on.

Re: [Audyssey] Windows Vista
Hi Dark, A while back I began working on a Windows based screen reader core mainly for myself. I am tired of paying the big bucks for Jaws or Window eyes, Hal, etc when I could probably make something myself that would be both functional, low cost, and have the features I want. I honestly haven't gotten very far yet as I have been far too busy with everything else that has been going on around here. Although, after I finish with Monty and Raceway I plan to take to that project with a vengence if I can. I hope Window Eyes 6.1 will be the last version of a commercial screen reader I'll have to upgrade to and with in a year or two I will have something almost equal to it as far as getting the job done. I'll likely start by supporting applications I use daily Firefox, Internet Explorer, Outlook, Thunderbird, Word, Notepad, you name it. After that assuming it is stable enough for others to get involved with I may expand the screen reader to support other third party software based on recommendations from any fans that might want to use it. Anyway, that is my plan. Who knows what the future will bring, but I certainly want to take a crack at my own screen reader. ___ Gamers mailing list ..

Re: [Audyssey] Important notice.
Hi, I beg to differ on the point of running JFW on Vista. I know of at least one person who's running JFW 8 on Vista. I'm not sure which version, or what features were enabled, but it is possible. I personally will only upgrade to Vista when I get a new computer. I do like the ideas of it, but I've got other things to save up my money for. Brandon Thomas Ward wrote: Hi Jim, Yes, anyone seaking to update to Vista needs a fairly modern PC to even run it. Especially, with the new 3D desktop Windows arrow. If you run Vista with the classic XP desktop you can ssqueeze with 800 MHZ and 512 MB of ram. If you run it using the 3D desktop you will need to basically double that system requirement. It also needs 40 MB of hard drive space, and 64 MB or better of vidio card memory. In short Vista is a system resource hog, but on modern computers it will do fine. Just won't run on anything manufactured before 2003 or so. Also JFW 4.x will absolutely not run on Vista. Not even JFW 8.

One thing I've always liked about dolphin, is their rather flexible deffinition of upgrade Sinse I have a license with them, when my old laptop gave up the ghost, they gave me a complete copy of Hal v6 at the price of an upgrade to install into my desktop. Ditto with the new work Laptop I've just acquired. sinse new version upgrades are only about£100 (about Sixty or seventy dollars I think), where as initially bying Hal would cost six or seven times that much, it's certainly helpful for keeping my screen reader up to date.
