Hello,
I have linux for five years like my primary OS. But I'm not using word
processors, etc. I use only text files. I can read Word files when I
want, but I haven't any experiences with that, I am really stupit for
this work. At school I had really problems. I had Windows, but I and
office work is really bad. I can't do hard documents very much and I
can't imagine how can I do it. Perhaps, I need some course.
Vojta.

The discussion of Linux as a home desktop environment is interesting to me. I===========================================================
am a windows user and have been for pretty much my entire computing life.
I have started learning a bit here and there about Linux system
administration, but I donât see how a blind person could really use a Linux
gui as a viable option to replace windows or even mac.
Iâd love to be proven wrong on this, as I think it would be an interesting
experiment to see how far I could take a Linux desktop, but any system where
I donât have a highly functional browser, spreadsheet and word processor at
the very minimum is gonna be a no go for me as a personal computer.
We even have image descriptions in NVDA and Jaws now for all those pesky
facebook memes.
Any thoughts on this?
Again, not trying to say it canât be done, I would just like to learn how
if so.
Cheers,
Zach

Hi Vojta,
There are companies like IBM who do have Linux running on their desktops
therefore do not lose hope. However, all computing need not be done for
employment. It is perfectly ok to use Windows at work and Linux at home.

Hello,
yes, never mind. I have Raspberry half a year, because I like Raspberry very
much, because no noise, no many electrical power, the best computer what I
had. I don't need laptop or desktop. I have laptop and desktop, but it is
turned off. And my friend Libor and my girlfriend Mirka have Raspberry too.
And our friend Pavel has it too. We all are blind and we use it. In the Czech
Republic is interrest in Raspberry Pi and linux from some visually impaired
people. Many people has Windows, but now, there are some people interrested
in linux. But many of them use linux only like a toy or some interresting
additional system. I am really uncomfortable, because to be employed in some
company with linux is really hard. I don't know any visually impeired people,
who is employd and use linux.
Best regards
Vojta.

Sorry Vojtech. I got your name wrong. And I think you've been here for
a while. I lose track of who is and who is not a longer-term member.
We had about 250 list members last time I checked.
It would be interesting to know the international spread.
