Well who woulda thought?  I don't keep track of more than a tiny portion of
the stuff being developed anymore, probably because 70%+ never gets near
gamma.

Looked at SpeakUp.  Interesting.  The question is begged though--if you're
actually -fully- blind (John can still see -some- on good days), how are
you supposed to get to the point where you -do- install the software,
without having the software installed already?  That question is like the
chicken and the egg.
