Re: [Blind-sysadmins] Quick survey. Results are important.

The survey provided the informationI needed as although the Linux users were interesting, theprimary focus was Windows. Thanks for your input. -----Original Message----- From: Blind-sysadmins [mailto:blind-sysadmins-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of Todor Fassl Sent: Wednesday 25 May 2016 21:29 To: Blind sysadmins list Subject: Re: [Blind-sysadmins] Quick survey. 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.commailto: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
