Netbook Oriented Linux Distributions Accessibility

[Rob Harris]

Thanks for this, will have to go this way soon when XP finally falls off the 
end.

How destructive of existing file system is it?  my file data set is the all 
important, amazing how many Os now don't seem to take that so seriously now. 
And we can't and imho, shouldn't put all our stuff in clouds, we'll get to 
regret it,eventually.

How easy/difficult is it to have multiple hdds or attach external usb ones? 
I've had at least 2 since DOS days.

Thanks, RobH.

there are 2 that are easily accessible for the blind.
1. Vinux (www.binuxproject.org)
2. Ubuntu


Vinux comes up with a screen reader right from the install disk. Ubuntu just 
needs a creel-s to start up speech after booting. I use Ubuntu 13.04 here 
(mostly for my ham radio stuff). I also have a mac (which I am typing this 
email on) and a windows laptop (windows 7, UGH!).

hope this info helps.
