A bit more info.

Using the NVDA screenreader, you can display books as a list in the Kindle
for PC app. They will be in a table, and you will need to tab around a bit
to find them. When you highlight a book, press alt for the file menu. That's
where the download option is. Note that you also have to choose the PC app
as your Send to source in the Kindle store.

Good luck.

Hello Prateek

I'm sorry if I can't be very specific with this. I was able to do it, but it
took a lot of fiddling. But maybe I can recount enough that it will be
helpful.

The Kindle for PC program is very difficult as you know. Jaws is useless
with it. I was able to do more with it using NVDA, so switch to that
screenreader. I did a lot of exploring of the menus with NVDA and was able
to find both a download and open book choice on the menus. Although I
couldn't read any of the book in the Kindle app, perhaps activating those
choices was helpful. Even after downloading, I have no idea where the book
went. It wasn't listed in the My Kindle Content folder.

I then went into the conversion program you are also using. I couldn't
locate the folder or file anywhere, but ended up choosing to convert
everything in the default My Kindle Content folder anyway. When I looked in
the . eBooks folder where conversion results go, my book was there along
with the free ones for Treasure Island, etc.

Using NVDA, it appears that you can also remove the Kindle version from your
library. I didn't try that.

Hope this at least gets you started.

and it's function keys work. The regular performance of the function keys
before being disabled still worked though, I just had to add the fn key to
them. For example, f1 turns down the volume, but now I just do fn f1.

Along a similar line of inquiry, from time to time, people have brought up
issues they've had with laptops and the function keys not working properly.
There have been discussions on how to adjust this behavior and the degree to
how accessible if at all this is as it sometimes involves monkeying around
with the bios and more in dept tinkering.
Outside of targeting certain specs that one wishes to have, I.E. processor,
hard drive capacity, ram, etc. how can one identify problematic models that
may present this function key issue and thus stay away from them and all the
headaches with trying to figure out how to fix it or return an open and used
item?
Is it really just hit and miss?

I realize that any new laptop will have Windows 10 as its operating
system, and am prepared to begin learning to use Jaws with that new
operating system.




My question is this:




What should I be looking for in a laptop?  I found the following
system requirements on the Freedom Scientific web site, but wonder
whether those are absolute minimum requirements:




Summary: Software and hardware specifications for JAWS




table with 2 columns and 7 rows

Description

Specification

JAWS Home Use Edition and JAWS Professional

WindowsR 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows ServerR
2012, and Windows Server 2008

Processor speed

Minimum 1.5 GHz processor

Memory (RAM)

4 GB recommended (64-bit)

2 GB recommended (32-bit)

Required hard disk space

20 MB to 690 MB required per voice for installing Vocalizer
Expressive, Vocalizer Direct, or RealSpeak Solo Direct voices (file
sizes will vary depending on the voice installed)

Video

A display adapter capable of at least 800 x 600 screen resolution
with 16-bit color (1024 x 768 screen resolution with 32-bit color
recommended)

Sound

Windows compatible sound card (for speech)

table end




Any specific recommendations would be appreciated.




Are there certain brands of laptops I should stay away from?  Right
now, I'm thinking of either an HP or a Dell.

Hi Brian I tried all of that but word would not recognize the Greek, after
some lengthy research on the internet and a call to Microsoft accessibility
it turns out that the file I have to run is proofing tools_el-gr_86.exe.
It does work now however it's not the greatest spell check.  I think I'm
going to invest in getting a whole language pack I think it's 24 bucks, and
that isn't to bad.  The language pack I have for 2010 works much better then
this free tool they offer.  Thanks for trying to help.

Hello Zoe,

In Word 2013 you can set the default proofing language.  Use Alt key
followed by R to get to the review tab of the ribbon.  Tab to Language
submenu and press enter key.  Set Proofing Language is one of the two items
in this submenu.  Choose the Set Proofing Language.  In the dialog box that
appears there is a checkbox for detecting language automatically and a Set
as Default button.  Make sure that English United States is selected in the
list of languages before using the Set as Default button.  

I don't have the earlier messages in this thread, so hopefully, this is what
you are needing.  

Take care.

I did as you said and installed the language proofing tools el-gr-64.exe It
told me to accept the licence I checked the box clicked continue and it told
me I'm all most there I need to restart word.  I did this but it doesn't
work.
I purposely typed in Greek miss spelled words.
I click f7 and word tells me the spelling and grammer is complete you are
good to go. The  only option it gives me is ok.
Any ideas? Is there maybe some setting I have to change in word?

there would have been a combo box,

if you would have,

Any ideas how maybe I could do it through the settings in Microsoft word?
I did find my old cd for 2010 and a long with that a thumb drive of an old

p.s. How funny is it that I got kicked off Jim's list and a week later I

I haven't updated to the latest jaws 17 because I've been told it

I tried the version with the accessibility plug-in and got nowhere with it. 
Then, when I tried it again, it prompted me to upgrade and install the new

A bit more info.

Using the NVDA screenreader, you can display books as a list in the Kindle
for PC app. They will be in a table, and you will need to tab around a bit
to find them. When you highlight a book, press alt for the file menu. That's
where the download option is. Note that you also have to choose the PC app
as your Send to source in the Kindle store.

Good luck.

Hello Prateek

I'm sorry if I can't be very specific with this. I was able to do it, but it
took a lot of fiddling. But maybe I can recount enough that it will be
helpful.

The Kindle for PC program is very difficult as you know. Jaws is useless
with it. I was able to do more with it using NVDA, so switch to that
screenreader. I did a lot of exploring of the menus with NVDA and was able
to find both a download and open book choice on the menus. Although I
couldn't read any of the book in the Kindle app, perhaps activating those
choices was helpful. Even after downloading, I have no idea where the book
went. It wasn't listed in the My Kindle Content folder.

I then went into the conversion program you are also using. I couldn't
locate the folder or file anywhere, but ended up choosing to convert
everything in the default My Kindle Content folder anyway. When I looked in
the . eBooks folder where conversion results go, my book was there along
with the free ones for Treasure Island, etc.

Using NVDA, it appears that you can also remove the Kindle version from your
library. I didn't try that.

Hope this at least gets you started.

A bit more info.

Using the NVDA screenreader, you can display books as a list in the Kindle
for PC app. They will be in a table, and you will need to tab around a bit
to find them. When you highlight a book, press alt for the file menu. That's
where the download option is. Note that you also have to choose the PC app
as your Send to source in the Kindle store.

Good luck.

Hello Prateek

I'm sorry if I can't be very specific with this. I was able to do it, but it
took a lot of fiddling. But maybe I can recount enough that it will be
helpful.

The Kindle for PC program is very difficult as you know. Jaws is useless
with it. I was able to do more with it using NVDA, so switch to that
screenreader. I did a lot of exploring of the menus with NVDA and was able
to find both a download and open book choice on the menus. Although I
couldn't read any of the book in the Kindle app, perhaps activating those
choices was helpful. Even after downloading, I have no idea where the book
went. It wasn't listed in the My Kindle Content folder.

I then went into the conversion program you are also using. I couldn't
locate the folder or file anywhere, but ended up choosing to convert
everything in the default My Kindle Content folder anyway. When I looked in
the . eBooks folder where conversion results go, my book was there along
with the free ones for Treasure Island, etc.

Using NVDA, it appears that you can also remove the Kindle version from your
library. I didn't try that.

Hope this at least gets you started.

Jean

Hello gang.
How do I get a purchased kindle book to actually download on my computer's

accessing the book and its contents from the cloud and not my PC's hard

Re: [JAWS-Users] email programs with windows 10 & jaws

[David Moore]

Hi all,
I am very sorry that I have not had the time to record my WLM tutorial yet. 
My wife is very sick, and she had to go into the hospital. She is home now, 
but we are still catching up on what we could not get done while she was 
sick. I will record the tutorial this coming Wednesday (March 16), and I 
will send it to David that day. Thank you for being so patient. Note that 
the tutorial I have already sent to a lot of you, was recorded by someone 
else and the tutorial and the quality of the recording is not that good. I 
was just giving you that to help you get you started until I record my 
tutorial and you get it. I will go over everything that you would ever want 
to do in Windows Live Mail, including importing different accounts into it. 
Take care, and have a great one.

When David sends it to me I will post it on the server. I must conclude he
has not had the time to create it as of yet since I have not heard from him
directly. So in short you all will have access to it shortly after I get it
myself.

I haven't updated to the latest jaws 17 because I've been told it
doesn't work properly with windows 10.  Right now I have no problems
but I would like to start using email on the new laptop.  What do you

Re: [JAWS-Users] [Bulk] Re: [Bulk] Re: language packs for office 2013

[zoe fiogkos]

Hi Brian I tried all of that but word would not recognize the Greek, after
some lengthy research on the internet and a call to Microsoft accessibility
it turns out that the file I have to run is proofing tools_el-gr_86.exe.
It does work now however it's not the greatest spell check.  I think I'm
going to invest in getting a whole language pack I think it's 24 bucks, and
that isn't to bad.  The language pack I have for 2010 works much better then
this free tool they offer.  Thanks for trying to help.

Hello Zoe,

In Word 2013 you can set the default proofing language.  Use Alt key
followed by R to get to the review tab of the ribbon.  Tab to Language
submenu and press enter key.  Set Proofing Language is one of the two items
in this submenu.  Choose the Set Proofing Language.  In the dialog box that
appears there is a checkbox for detecting language automatically and a Set
as Default button.  Make sure that English United States is selected in the
list of languages before using the Set as Default button.  

I don't have the earlier messages in this thread, so hopefully, this is what
you are needing.  

Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] [Bulk] Re: [Bulk] Re: language packs for office 2013

[zoe fiogkos]

I did as you said and installed the language proofing tools el-gr-64.exe
It told me to accept the licence I checked the box clicked continue and it
told me I'm all most there I need to restart word.  I did this but it
doesn't work.
I purposely typed in Greek miss spelled words.
I click f7 and word tells me the spelling and grammer is complete you are
good to go. The  only option it gives me is ok.
Any ideas? Is there maybe some setting I have to change in word?

hi Zoe;
on the page you should have seen;
Microsoft Office Proofing Tools 2013 - English
Select Language:

there would have been a combo box,
select language combo box,
if you would have,
pressed, alt+down-arrow, this would have allowed you to use the down arrow 
key to get to the Greek proofing tool.
I would think you should install the 64bit,

[JAWS-Users] a link that I got from a post from a member on this list

[anna vimini]

Thanks Mike
Re: [JAWS-Users] a link I got from a post from a member on this list
Hi Anna,

Here's the article:

If you don't want Windows 10, do this!
By
Martin Brinkmann
on 2016-03-13T08:15:33+0100  in
Windows
 - Last Update: 2016-03-13T11:04:37+0100
 66

Reports are coming in
 by users from around the world on sites like Reddit that machines running
Windows 7 or Windows 8 have been updated -- once again -- to Windows 10
automatically.

They report that the update was automated, and that they did not receive 
any

prompt or option to stop the process once it was in motion.

Some noticed that their machines were upgraded to the new operating system
after coming back from lunch or checking their computer in the morning after
leaving it turned on for the night.

This is not the first time that this happened to some users running Windows
7 or 8 on their machines. Users were experiencing the same thing in October
2015 and
Microsoft apologized later on
 stating that the enforcement was not intended to be delivered
automatically.

But the issue
did not keep Microsoft from pushing Windows 10
 related updates to machines running previous versions of Windows, and the
company stated openly that
it is "going to keep at it"
 even though it may be discomforting to some customers.

In February 2016 then it made
Windows 10 a recommended update on Windows 7 and Windows 8.

If you don't want Windows 10, do this

The following steps are recommended to anyone who does not want to upgrade
computer systems running Windows 7 or Windows 8 to Windows 10.

Step 1: Disable automatic updates

Automatic updates are convenient, as Windows will download and install
critical system updates automatically.

The main issue with the setting is that you don't get any say in the matter
and no option to research updates before they are installed.

Windows updates may have adverse effects on a system. We have seen in the
past that they may cause all kinds of issues on a system including
preventing
it to boot or upgrading it to Windows 10.

So, instead of having the system set to install updates automatically, you
configure it to inform you about new updates so that you can decide whether
to install them or not.

Here is how that is done (the screenshots have been taken on a Windows 7
machine, but the methodology is the same on Windows 8).

Step 1: Tap on the Windows-key, type Windows Update, and hit enter.

windows update

Step 2: Click on "change settings" when the Windows Update Control Panel
opens up.

windows update change settings

Step 3: Locate the "important updates" menu on the page that opens and 
click

on it. Switch from "install updates automatically" to "check for updates but
let me choose whether to download and install them". Click on ok afterwards.

windows manual updates

Windows will notify you about updates but won't download or install them
automatically anymore.

This requires that you go through the list of updates manually whenever 
they

are presented to you to select those you want installed.

You can use the
built-in hide functionality
 to block the installation of updates you don't want installed on your
machine.

Additionally, you may want to do the following to improve the blocking
further.

list of 2 items
1. Set the preferences
DisableOSUpgrade and DisableGWX in the Registry
 to block the upgrade to Windows 10. Click on the link for instructions on
how to do that.
2. Install the excellent GWX Control Panel application
 which has been designed to block Windows 10 on machines running Windows 7
or 8.

Description
Microsoft pushes Windows 10 as an upgrade on machines running Windows 7 or
8. If you don't want it, you need to configure the device to block automatic
updates.

When David sends it to me I will post it on the server. I must conclude he
has not had the time to create it as of yet since I have not heard from him
directly. So in short you all will have access to it shortly after I get it
myself.

No, it is not, as I have said before,
it is because of the scripts for Jaws.

Re: [JAWS-Users] [EXTERNAL] If You Don't Want Windows 10 Installed On Your Computer, Read This Article

[Jim Pursley]

I've always chosen my updates from the important updates list but that 
did not prevent Microsoft from placing its nasty little Get Windows 10 
balloons allover my machine, about 5X a day.  Only the GWX software 
zapped it all.  I'm a happy camper with GWX.  Windows 10 will come to me 
in the fullness of my own time, not Microsoft's.

Hello, all.



I'm getting ready to purchase a new laptop computer, and want to be
sure I get one that is adequate for Jaws.  I currently use Jaws 16,
and my SMA covers Jaws 17.  So I will likely put Jaws 17 on the new

computer.



I realize that any new laptop will have Windows 10 as its operating
system, and am prepared to begin learning to use Jaws with that new
operating system.



My question is this:



What should I be looking for in a laptop?  I found the following
system requirements on the Freedom Scientific web site, but wonder
whether those are absolute minimum requirements:



Summary: Software and hardware specifications for JAWS



table with 2 columns and 7 rows

Description

Specification

JAWS Home Use Edition and JAWS Professional

WindowsR 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows ServerR
2012, and Windows Server 2008

Processor speed

Minimum 1.5 GHz processor

Memory (RAM)

4 GB recommended (64-bit)

2 GB recommended (32-bit)

Required hard disk space

20 MB to 690 MB required per voice for installing Vocalizer
Expressive, Vocalizer Direct, or RealSpeak Solo Direct voices (file
sizes will vary depending on the voice installed)

Video

A display adapter capable of at least 800 x 600 screen resolution
with 16-bit color (1024 x 768 screen resolution with 32-bit color
recommended)

Sound

Windows compatible sound card (for speech)

table end



Any specific recommendations would be appreciated.



Are there certain brands of laptops I should stay away from?  Right
now, I'm thinking of either an HP or a Dell.

[JAWS-Users] language packs for office 2013

[zoe fiogkos]

So on Friday I purchased my office 2013.
I tried to go to the office.com to get the free add ons for proofing tools
in another language but no luck.
Any ideas how maybe I could do it through the settings in Microsoft word?
I did find my old cd for 2010 and a long with that a thumb drive of an old
2010 language pack.  Even though this is office 2013 would I be able to
install the 2010 language pack?
p.s. How funny is it that I got kicked off Jim's list and a week later I
found the cd for office 2010.  Oh well everything happends for a reason.
Second p.s. thank you to all for your great help and support.

It seems that you have the keyboard set to another language by default.  The
Alt-Shift is used to switch the keyboard from one language to another; in my
case, the default language is English, but I also have Spanish installed and
when I press Shift-Alt it toggles to Spanish and back to English.

I suggest you go to the Control Panel, to Clock, language and Region and see
if you can make English your default language and keyboard.

So I go to Contacts, then what, I can't find an export feature.

Perhaps there is another way, but this is how I've extracted my address book

Hey guys, currently I'm using windows 7 and jaws 15 but I have a new

I haven't updated to the latest jaws 17 because I've been told it 
doesn't work properly with windows 10.  Right now I have no problems

Re: [JAWS-Users] keyboard layout when typing

[Humberto Rodriguez]

It seems that you have the keyboard set to another language by default.  The
Alt-Shift is used to switch the keyboard from one language to another; in my
case, the default language is English, but I also have Spanish installed and
when I press Shift-Alt it toggles to Spanish and back to English.

I suggest you go to the Control Panel, to Clock, language and Region and see
if you can make English your default language and keyboard.

[JAWS-Users] How to download kindle book on PC's hard drive using JAWS

[Dujari, Prateek]

Hello gang.
How do I get a purchased kindle book to actually download on my computer's hard 
drive?? ,
Using Win8.1, Latest JFW17. I installed and logged on to Amazon's 'Kindle for 
PC' program on my Win8.1 windows computer. I'm successfully logged on to my 
amazon account each time I open the "kindle for PC' program. I bought a kindle 
book using my web browser at amazon.com and clicked the 'deliver to kindle for 
PC' button. ON my computer opening the 'kindle for PC' program, I can see the 
purchased book listed there.  I just can't find it on my PC's hard drive which 
suggests that the 'kindle for PC' program on my computer is accessing the book 
and its contents from the cloud and not my PC's hard drive.  I can open and 
read the book within the 'kindle for PC' program. I however need it on my PC's 
hard drive so I can use AN ACCESSIBLE LEGAL SOFTWARE CALED the CALLED 'CODEX' 
TO CONVERT THE KNIDLE FORMAT TO ANOTHER TO ALLOW me to read it on my BookSense 
Xt.I can also see that installing the 'kindle for PC' and logging on to my 
amazon account through this program on my computer put the kind
 le book 'Treasure Island' for free on my PC's hard drive and I'm able to 
locate the files for this kindle book on the hard drive. I can also see 
Treasure Island right below the book I purchased in the list in the kindle for 
PC program. Just can't find the purchased book anywhere on the hard drive 
despite doing a search.

Hi, my first recommendation is to stay away from HP. yes, Del is a top brand

Hello, all.

   


I'm getting ready to purchase a new laptop computer, and want to be
sure I get one that is adequate for Jaws.  I currently use Jaws 16,
and my SMA covers Jaws 17.  So I will likely put Jaws 17 on the new

computer.
   


I realize that any new laptop will have Windows 10 as its operating
system, and am prepared to begin learning to use Jaws with that new
operating system.

   


My question is this:

   


What should I be looking for in a laptop?  I found the following
system requirements on the Freedom Scientific web site, but wonder
whether those are absolute minimum requirements:

   


Summary: Software and hardware specifications for JAWS

   


table with 2 columns and 7 rows

Description

Specification

JAWS Home Use Edition and JAWS Professional

WindowsR 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows ServerR
2012, and Windows Server 2008

Processor speed

Minimum 1.5 GHz processor

Memory (RAM)

4 GB recommended (64-bit)

2 GB recommended (32-bit)

Required hard disk space

20 MB to 690 MB required per voice for installing Vocalizer
Expressive, Vocalizer Direct, or RealSpeak Solo Direct voices (file
sizes will vary depending on the voice installed)

Video

A display adapter capable of at least 800 x 600 screen resolution with
16-bit color (1024 x 768 screen resolution with 32-bit color
recommended)

Sound

Windows compatible sound card (for speech)

table end

   


Any specific recommendations would be appreciated.

   


Are there certain brands of laptops I should stay away from?  Right
now, I'm thinking of either an HP or a Dell.

Re: [JAWS-Users] incoming email sound help?

[Mario]

Zoe, Mike, and anyone else, as I understand that feature for the top and 
bottom edge indicator is a feature that is hard coded in the particular 
program being used. so, the problem is not that JAWS's settings don't 
work for this feature it's that the manufacturer of the program disabled 
this feature from being changed even though JAWS's feature is set to 
silent. I bet if this setting in JAWS is set to notify with sound, two 
indicators would be heard. there is a tech support document explaining 
this.

Hi David & Zoe,

Since I don't run Windows 10, this is a question out of curiosity.  Since
Jaws is Jaws no matter which operating system, can't the, Top & Bottom Edge,

sound option be turned On / Off in Jaws' Quick Settings, Insert / Jaws key +

V, under the General heading?  I haven't followed this whole thread, so I
could be way off topic.
Take care.
Mike

hello Zoe;

the sound your hearing when you up or down arrow within empty word document,
top and bottom of inbox,
is the top and bottom edge,
by default the sound is turned on,
you can turn this off,



if you wish to change a sound event notification you can do the following;

1, desktop,
windows+i=windows settings,

2, now right-arrow until you hear, personalization,
press enter,

3, now press the down-arrow until you hear themes,
press enter,

4, now use the tab key until you hear,
Advanced sound settings link,
press enter
5, you're now into the windows sounds page dialog,
tab 3 times to the listview,
now you can use the down-arrow key to find a specific sound, example, "email
notification,

next, tab twice, here you'll find a list of possible list of sounds you can
choose from,
once making a choice,
you can now tab to test button, and press the spacebar,
if you're happy with the choice, you can tab to the apply button,
press enter.

Hi everyone, when new email arrives in outlook 2013 I here a sound
definitely, the problem is it's the same sound that I here when I'm arrowing
up and down in my inbox and there are no messages.  I also here the same
sound in a word document when there is no text and I arrow up and down.  In
windows 10 how can I change the incoming email sound?
Regards
Zoe

[JAWS-Users] Computer not going directly to site or program chosen

[Arianna Calesso]

I'm using Windows 7 and JAWS 16 and when I press enter to go into a program or 
internet site my computer goes to a new browser window instead of directly to 
where I want to go.  That new browser window is in that program or site I've 
chosen.  How do I change this so I can go directly to where I want to go?

Along a similar line of inquiry, from time to time, people have brought up
issues they've had with laptops and the function keys not working properly.
There have been discussions on how to adjust this behavior and the degree to
how accessible if at all this is as it sometimes involves monkeying around
with the bios and more in dept tinkering.
Outside of targeting certain specs that one wishes to have, I.E. processor,
hard drive capacity, ram, etc. how can one identify problematic models that
may present this function key issue and thus stay away from them and all the
headaches with trying to figure out how to fix it or return an open and used
item?
Is it really just hit and miss?

Yes, those cooling pads are a good investment for these fan-cooled laptops.

I have a couple of Systemax towers and am quite pleased with them. I do have
a Dell lap top that my niece gave me because she said it didn't work. It has
XP on it but I only use it for music. I bring it up because it does run hot
so I got a cooling pad for it right away and that has kept the evil spirits
away for a number of years already.

David and all:

I appreciate the responses I have gotten to my quiry, as I try to figure out
what would be best when purchasing a new laptop.

I've never heard of Systemax computers, so this may be worth looking into.

Again, I appreciate everyone's input here.

Just to toss my thoughts in to the mix, personally I get good performance
from Systemax computers. Also Lenovo makes a good lap top as well.

Computer brand is no different from cars. I personally get the best
performance from HP computers and will stick with this brand when I replace
my current one. So, for computer brand, you are on your own. I have owned
Dell and do not plan to own another.

Hi, my first recommendation is to stay away from HP. yes, Del is a top brand
along with Asus and Lenovo but finally when selecting a laptop it's up to
you.

Hello, all.


I'm getting ready to purchase a new laptop computer, and want to be
sure I get one that is adequate for Jaws.  I currently use Jaws 16,
and my SMA covers Jaws 17.  So I will likely put Jaws 17 on the new

computer.



I realize that any new laptop will have Windows 10 as its operating
system, and am prepared to begin learning to use Jaws with that new
operating system.


My question is this:


What should I be looking for in a laptop?  I found the following
system requirements on the Freedom Scientific web site, but wonder
whether those are absolute minimum requirements:

Re: [JAWS-Users] Using Windows Live Mail

[Charles Krugman]

I don't know about tutorials specifically for Windows 7 as I bypassed 
Windows 7 but I've used it with Windows 8.1 and 10. Jaws works fine with it 
and although it is similar to the original Outlook Express it is a a bit 
quirky mainly due to some things they left out of the actual program.

Hi.

I used to use Outlook Express until it stopped working for me.

I have been using web mail a lot because I wasn't sure about using
windows live mail with Jaws and Windows 7.

Are there any tutorials on using Windows mail and Jaws?

I am about to check the Freedom Scientific site.

Cheers.
