Subject: [JAWS-Users] new computer user

Hi Karen, I can remember how totally intimidated i was by jaws 
and the
computer when i first got mine.  I was 52 and had no idea what i 
was doing.
If you go into the jaws window and hit alt+h, arrow down and 
you'll  find
training and keystrokes with jaws.  that's a good starting 
place.

I think the thing that made me feel most comfortable, since i was 
afraid i'd
break the monster, was knowing that i can go into help, or the 
control
panel, or any program, play around all i want and, as long as i 
hit escape
rather than accept, yes, or enter, i wouldn't change anything
permanently.  Good luck.  Karen near chicago

Hi Karen,

When i first started with computers, a friend told me that there is
nothing that you can type that will cause your computer to blow up.
And, with Windows, there are usually several opportunities to undo
anything that you do.

Exactly!   That's how you learn.  You should try to get some training,
but the best training is designed to get you started, and from there,
you learn by trial and error, just like cooking, child raising, etc.
