Forgive my ignorance but is Microsoft moving on from Windows 7? In that event can we upgrade from Windows 7? -original message- Subject: [vip_students] Preview of Narrator in Windows 8 From: "Aedan O'Meara" <aedanomeara@xxxxxxxxx> Date: 25/09/2011 10:33 am Hi all, I came on this on the Access-uk list: Some of you might be interested in a preview of Narrator in Windows 8 due out some time later. The link to this demo is http://mark.candleshoreblog.com/2011/09/23/ep100-a-demonstration-of-windows- 8-developer-preview-accessibility/ <http://mark.candleshoreblog.com/2011/09/23/ep100-a-demonstration-of-windows -8-developer-preview-accessibility/> The quality of the voice is excellent and functionality is greatly improved. As someone on the access-uk list commented: i wonder how long it will be before the commercial screen reader providers will take to object to this! Kind regards Aedan.
