Hi,
Agreed. I often run my desktop with the monitor off for exactly the same
reasons you pointed out. If I am the only one using the computer with
speech there is no need to have the screen on waisting power, risk
ruining the monitor from over use, etc. If anyone like Nicol is asked
why
Hi Josh,
Keep in mind you are talking about someone who lives in South Africa not
the U.S.A. I am sure they have some sort of training centers for the
blind, but pointing him to the centers in the U.S.A. isn't likely to help.

The reason why I cannot turn off my monitor if I play a game like sarah.
The people that share the flat with me will get suspicious if my screen is
off if for example the lady enters my room to check my clothes etc.
She will ask me why my screen is off.

If I recall correctly...all laptops have a setting..button..whatever to
control the brighteness of the screen. So there is a way to turn the
brightness way down as if the screen were offgrin.
and this should also extend the battery life on your laptop...give you more
time between
THANKS PHIL, WONDERFULL REASONS.

Hi Nicol,
I recommend you go to www.cocenter.org and www.blindinc.org and get in touch
with the people there. Nicol, you are an adult and if you want the screen
turned off you can turn it off and if people put up or give you krap tell them
to go to you-know-where. You're 31 years old or so.

It is perfectly normal to turn your monitor off if one is
blind. I mean what good would it do? I have mine only turned
on if a sighted person is wanting to look up stuff with me,
as they cannot follow jaws by sound only.
You have your set up the way you are comfortable with, I
would not turn it on

Hi Robert,
Well, I can think of a few instances where you can't just simply turn
off the screen. Many laptops, like mine, don't have a power button for
the display. As a result anything I do can be seen by a sighted party if
he or she decided to look over my shoulder.

Hi Nicol,

are similar to your mother's opinions I know all too well how hard it is
to get people like that to see your point of view.
Cheers!

Though I talked of that in the dnd style of stuff.
