Hi, It's interesting, I would say in the main the topics on the list aren't really sysadmin stuff at all, but mainly more complex desktop issues. The main topics over the years have been surrounding WinPE and recovery tools. I would love to see more sysadmin problem solving type questions go up here if we can do that.

Results are important. It's hard to say if this list is representative of the blind sys admin community as a whole. My impression is that linux users are under represented. It could be that the list attracts Windows users because there are a lot of Windows questions asked and answered on this list. Or it could be that I think linux users are under represented because I am on so many linux user lists. Also, this list almost certainly attractspeople who are already employed.

Thanks everyone for the really useful feedback.
Here are the results:
Jaws 3 unemployed . 9 employed
NVDA . 1 Unemployed . 2 employed
Window Eyes . 4 employed
Orca . 2 employed
Overall, I think this is really encouraging.
It will assist me in a discussion I'm having at the moment.
It will also help everyone here when you are asking a developer to use a certain application for testing the accessibility of any particular system administration tool. You have an idea of the most popular at the moment.
Thanks again

Hello,
I would appreciate it if you would reply with the screen reader you primarily use and yes or no depending on if you are currently employed or not. For example: Jaws, Yes.
To indicate that Jaws is your primary screen reader and you are currently employed.
If you'd prefer to send this to me off list please Email d@digitaldarragh.com<mailto:d@digitaldarragh.com>
Your name and answer will not be shared. I simply want to get a picture of the top screen readers actively used in system administration by blind users.
Thanks
