Good morning, Do you have any preferred backup solutions? I need to backup about 1.5GB of data using incremental and full backups. A self contained backup solution or an appliance would be fine. Lllll It needs to be accessible of course. Any suggestions?

Hi I found this list while I was looking for information on NVDA and teamViewer. My name is Josh Kennedy and I am from a small town in Pennsylvania near Harrisburg. I attended the Colorado Center for the blind for independent living training in 2008. Then in 2011 I got a-plus and network-plus certifications so I could work at a help desk. I got a job, and then lost it due to family issues so never got the chance to work. My certifications are now expired and I don't have the money to renew them. Public transit is pretty much non-existent around here. I'd like to know if there are any companies who hire IT people to do a combination of phone and tech support from home? Also I have a very part time side job. I clean and fix up computers for people around town. I do this by reformatting machines when needed using a talking windows disk. Or I use Ubuntu when needed to do more advanced work. I was thinking of expanding by offering remote support to jaws users using jaws tandom and charging a small fee for training and remote support. But I'm not sure how popular that would be and I only have a jaws demo and cannot afford jaws. And as far as I know I cannot buy jaws on just $150 per month.

Accessibility of linux
by Chamandeep Singh Grover 09 Oct '14

Hi all, I keep getting advised by other developers that Linux is a better platform to develop under compared to Windows. I wanted to explore options for how Linux is accessible and what is available? I've never used Linux so any advice on how things work and how to get setup would be appreciated. I would still like to use my windows machine for day to day work. But would like to have Linux either as a separate installation or a virtual machine. Thanks for any help you can give with this. Regards, Chamandeep Singh

Malware Bytes 1.75 works just fine. Go into settings and tell it not to update itself automatically. You can still update the malware database it uses and stay safe.

Does anyone have an accessible malware scanner. Malware Bytes is still inaccessible. Anybody know of a good one you can navigate with any screen reader?
