Window Eyes Training Opportunity

RantWoman has read good reports but has never gotten around to testing that Window Eyes switches much more smoothly between English and Russian than JAWS does. RantWoman has a demo and WILL get around to testing sometime.

In the meantime, this training looks like something RantWoman would go to if she were even a tad closer to MN. RantWoman also notes useful contact information to be stored in her blog as file cabinet model of information repository, also known as a really good excuse just shamelessly to reproduce a press release:
