Using Windows XP IE8 and Window-eyes 8.4 I can read it. I pasted the
article below for you.
To read it, I went down below the voting. Try doing a search for
interesting and the article begins a couple of lines below that. I
did have to turn browse mode off and on and use the screen re-draw
command as I moved from the first page through the two later pages.
Hope this helps. Sure makes me wonder about upgrading my system since
this is the second time in a week I have responded when folks cannot
read something on a web page with newer browsers and screen reader updates.

Grab your TV remote and scroll through all the TV channels you have
available right
now. No matter how many channels, networks and shows you see, there's
an entire universe
of even more programming - sports, movies, sitcoms, documentaries,
how-tos, nearly
anything you can imagine, available right now through your Internet
connection. The
trick is where to look for your favorite shows, and how to get them
from the Internet
to your TV screen.
We're in the middle of a very exciting time - especially for movie
buffs and TV fans.
Right now, you have more choices than ever to stream your favorite
content, from
the Internet, right to your television. So, how do you know which one to pick?
Well, that really depends on what you're looking for. Each service
offers different
apps and functions, so you've got to make sure you find one that
meets your needs.
Cost is also a big factor. After all, most people cut the cord on
cable to save money.
Why would you get rid of cable if you're just going to spend a bundle
trying to get
your shows and movies anyway? That's why I've come up with some of
the easiest ways
for you to stream entertainment to your TV for cheap - or even free!
But, just because you're saving a few bucks doesn't mean you're
losing out on quality.
These services sync up with most of your favorite streaming services
without breaking
the bank.
Chromecast
The Chromecast is just a little plastic thing that slides into an
HDMI port on your
TV. It's really affordable at only $35.
Every new TV will have this port, but older sets won't. You'll also
want to make
sure you have an open HDMI port available to use. You need to make
sure yours aren't
already in use by other gadgets or game consoles. The HDMI port is
usually hidden
in the back of the set, so you don't have to worry about Chromecast
cluttering up
your living room.
The setup takes some coordination between your computer and TV, but
the directions
are extremely simple and clear. Chromecast uses your home Wi-Fi to
connect to your
computer or phone. It took me all of about 3 minutes to set up.
The only trick is to find the Chromecast on your TV. Use the "input"
or "source"
button on your remote. (The one that takes you from your cable to
your DVD or Blu-ray
player.)
You'll know you've found the Chromecast because Google has
thoughtfully included
some restful nature backgrounds for the instructions.
Once Chromecast is set up, you're ready to stream. You can stream
from a lot of gadgets
- Apple and Android smartphones and tablets to Macs and PCs. You can
stream directly
from your Internet browser using the Google Cast extension for your
Google Chrome
Web browser. To get it,
just visit the page
and click the "+ Free" button at the top of the page. This will let
you send content
from your computer's Google Chrome browser to Chromecast.
Chromecast also works with a lot of the most popular streaming apps,
like Netflix,
Hulu Plus and YouTube. You can also control the volume from your
tablet, phone or
laptop.

HD Antenna
If you're a big fan of the major broadcast networks, local sports or
news, then this
is the choice for you. It lets you pull the broadcast signals
straight out of the
air free of charge.
You can get an industry-leading model in my store for just $39.99 -
that's 20% off!
It's paper-thin and you can mount it just about anywhere - even
hidden behind a picture
or painting. It's white on one side and black on the other, so you
can hang it to
match a white wall or a black entertainment center.
The omnidirectional antenna will grab a strong signal no matter how
you position
it. Once you complete the easy setup, there's no constant fiddling to
make it work.
Just use the "input" button on your remote to switch the TV to
antenna mode. Then,
kick back and watch dozens of great shows, news and sports from
broadcasters like
NBC, FOX, CBS and ABC.
Each antenna has a different reach. Standard models will usually
pickup broadcasts
as far as 30 miles away. But,
amplified versions can reach even further
.. You'll want to find out how far each of your favorite broadcasts is
away from your
home before you make your purchase.
This handy website will help you find out just how far away each broadcast is
..
For a limited time, you can buy the
Amplified Indoor HDTV antenna
in my store and get free shipping with promo code
FREE. Don't wait; buy now before this offer expires.
Connect your TV to your computer
This can be one of your cheapest options, but it also takes more tech
savvy and work
on your part. But, if you're a do-it-yourselfer, then this might be
the best option
for you. It'll let you access all of your favorite streaming websites
like Amazon
Prime, Netflix and YouTube on your TV. You can also look at your
photos, home videos
and any other content stored on your computer.
First, you have to connect your computer to the TV. The process is
pretty simple
if you have a newer TV. Most newer desktop computers have an HDMI
output, so all
you'll need is an HDMI cable that's long enough to reach your TV.
You can get one for under $10
.. Simply plug the cable in to both the computer and TV, and you're
all set. If you
want to connect with an iMac,
you'll need this adapter from Apple.
If you want to use a laptop that doesn't have an HDMI port, you can
try using a VGA
cable. Many laptops have this port to connect to computer screens.
Unlike HDMI cables,
VGA cables don't transmit sound, so you'll need to get one that
includes an audio
jack.
This one is a cheap choice on Amazon.
Plug the VGA cable into both the computer and TV. You can plug the
audio jack in
to the headphone port on your laptop and the similar connection in your TV.
Once again,
Apple offers a VGA adapter to use with its older MacBooks
.. New MacBook Pros will work with the HDMI adapter.
Once the computer and TV are connected, you just need to set up your
display settings.
If you connected from a desktop computer using an HDMI cable, this is
easy. On both
Windows 7 and Windows 8, just press the Windows button and P at the
same time (the
Windows button is between Alt and Ctrl on the left side of the
keyboard). Then, select
the option to switch to the second screen. Mac computers should
immediately recognize
your TV. Now, use the "input" button on your remote and select HDMI.
If you're using a laptop and VGA cable, use the "input" button on
your remote to
find the right setting. This should be easy, because your TV will
mirror anything
on your computer, so it should show up right when you find the right setting.
Now, you're all set. You've just turned your HDTV into a huge
computer screen. So,
you can now stream video and do anything else using the keyboard and
mouse at your
computer.
You can even turn your smartphone into a mouse and control everything
from there
