Okay, I wasn't going to wway on this but the last two remarks have forced my hand. It is not easy for people to Get JAWS. Plane and simple, people can't get JAWS, or any other blindness related equipment, unless the government helps them get it. More often than not, and more and more, government agencies are being restricted on what they are allowed to provide there clients. You tell people to go get a job and stop asking for handouts? I'm currently dealing with an EEOC case regarding a company that not only refused to provde me an accomidation for using there computer with a screen reader, but after telling me that I wasn't going to get the accomidation, I was promptly dismissed by the company. You tell someone to get a job? How about giving instruction on how you got your job in the first place. I've spent the entire summer looking for jobs, and haven't been accepted to a single one. If it wasn't for the part-time contract job that I have now, I wouldn't have one. So to the person who made that comment about getting a job and stop asking for hando uts, did you know that over 75 percent of persons with disabilities don't have jobs, and that in the blindness community its over 80 percent? Thanks, Darrell
