Hi Dave, I just wanted to say hi and thank you for joining. I think you will like this group as you can ask any questions that you might have and others are glad to help you with their experience and knowledge. I've never played games on the computer, but I'm sure it is fun.

And most of it is with a great sense of humor which is necessary to deal with being a quad. J In 1990 when I was first injured I was at Santa Clara rehab and they had a Macintosh and were just beginning to teach people to use the computers. Ironically I had a Macintosh SE at home so I was already up to date, but I hadn’t played any games on it to speak of, except for Shanghai or Mahjongg. I still play it in the newer versions are fantastic compared to 1990. I do not use dragon but I use windows seven speech recognition and except for the normal problems with external noise that is inherent with speech recognition it works very well. Don’t know if you would consider mahjongg a game, but I enjoy it. Joan C4 1990
