Re: [Blind-Computing] computer starting before pressing poweron
I think it's meant that when the power is connected to the computer, it automatically turns on as if it was suspended instead of actually being powered off. In other words, does the computer actually get told to turn off, or do you just disconnect the UPS power supply to it? That might be causing the whole issue, and if you specifically tell it to turn off, does it do the same thing?

I'm looking for advice on where to purchase one and what site might have the best deal on prices, etc? I want to make the best economical purchase, or I should say my folks' purchase, possible.

Recently, in an attempt to cut down on Spammers, my internet provider has set the number of people that you can have in a distribution list to 20. The only way I know to get around this problem is to create about 25 small distribution lists with only 20 names each in them.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Distribution List Question
Send them invitations. I do believe that these sites provide a process for inviting people to join. You might loose a large percentage of your people in the process ... people don't want to change. But if you have loyal devoted followers, they should all come over. Another disadvantage is that these groups are prone to pick up spammers. But you can control that by limiting who can post to the group. Alternatively you could switch ISPs, curtailing distribution lists seems a bit draconian to me. -- Seth Russell Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/people/Seth-Russell/10470462538 Blogging: http://fastblogit.com/seth/ Developing: http://tagtalking.net/ Shopping: http://www.speaktomecatalog.com On Sat, Dec 26, 2009 at 10:42 AM, blindguy blindgu...@gmail.com wrote: So after creating this how do you get the word out for folks to join? -Original Message- From: blind-computing-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:blind-computing-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Kliph Sent: Saturday, December 26, 2009 9:53 AM To: blind-computing@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] Distribution List Question Go to yahoogroups.com and go to the 3 easy steps to create a group.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Victor Stream, where's the best place to get one
Hi. Thanks. That prompts another question. The NLS version of the VR Stream... would it also play books I download from Bookshare? I mean if I can borrow the NLS player and it's versatile enough for my needs, it might be better than buying one since they aren't cheap. Maybe. -Original Message- On Behalf Of Marilyn Walker Chris, if you are in the U S, you are eligible to receive a free versioin of the nls v r stream in the talking books program. To buy your own, just Google the term and see what comes up. I think the price will be the same regardless of vendor-sort of price fixing . Humanware.com was involved in the invention of the vrs. The others are vendor/resellers so checking warranties would be a good idea If AMazon.com has it, it may be free shipping from Amazon. marilyn For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

For Christmas my folks are going to get me a Victor Stream or a comparable device. I really don't know a lot about which players are the best on the market, but I've heard the most about the Victor Stream and will most likely go with that one. I'm looking for advice on where to purchase one and what site might have the best deal on prices, etc? I want to make the best economical purchase, or I should say my folks' purchase, possible. I figure I should also keep in mind any potential warrantees, repair policies, etc. Things sure have a habit of breaking. Any other thoughts on the matter are welcome. Thanks and happy holidays.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Victor Stream, where's the best place to get one
Chris, for answers, go to www.humanware.com which sells the vrs. THe version provided by NLS has an onboard speaker while the one anyone can buy uses ear buds and/or small external speakers. CHeck it out. I assume you are in the u s and can call your local Talking Books Center for more details. I just received my nls vrs, advanced version, and have not had any time to learn houw to use it. marilyn For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

It depends on which service you are using. The program for this list is the hardest to get a handle on but it is the most comprehensive.

[Blind-Computing] turning off the security prompt in internet explorer
Hi, everyone, I just read the tips and tricks page on the jaws users site and followed the instructions for turning off the security prompting you get on some sites and it didn't work. I went on the Safeway.com site and I still got the prompt saying this site has both secure and non secure information. Do you want to continue or something like that. Is there another way to turn off this feature? I don't want it popping up each time I sign in to a site to do some shopping. Any help would be very much appreciated. Many thanks in advance.
