This is a good point. At my last sort of informal count there is around 315 MB of training material for version 10 alone. Personally I'm going to check out more with these voice profiles.

The thing is to know how to access that help when you need it. there is keyboard help with insert+1, and insert+h for "JAWS hot keys"; and insert+F1 for program help. There are hundreds of commands in JAWS and Windows. It is sophisticated, and is simple only if you can make it so. Remember your JAWS training materials. Read them, off-line (not on the computer) if you can. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Karen Bailey" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com> Sent: Wednesday, November 19, 2008 7:01 PM Subject: [JAWS-Users] my questions: about Jaws and the computer: Hello: a quick question. David or Rick can decide whether this should be discussed here or not, but my question is this. Think back about when you first learned Jaws and the computer, and I want to ask this question: Was it worth it? Do you presently use it for your jobs? And what about the daily struggle to understand how to do everything? Was it worth the trouble? Is it always a learning thing even now for those who have known this technology for a while? Do you ever level off where you know most of it, and it's not so much of a battle? These are the questions I have been asking myself since November when I got all this equipment, and am trying so hard to learn everything, but there's always something coming up I don't know how to do. Do you think this has increased blind people's ability at all to get employment? That was the reason I Thought I should do all that. Thanks. You can respond off-list if this is not appropriate question for here.
