Pozdrav ljudi! Ispod lepim text, koji sam dobio sa jedne druge liste. Text
je na engleskom jeziku. U pitanju je text u vezi sa Narrator-om u samoj
osmici. Medju redove text-a, postoji i podcast link, gde se moze poslusati
kako windows 8 radi sa Narrator-om. Podcast je napravio covek, koji je
programmer, i on daje svoja misljenja. Ja licno jos uvek nisam instalirao
windows 8, tako da ne znam koliko je sve ovo tacno/nije, ali covek je
definitivno totalno razocaran pristupacnoscu u windows-u 8...
Izvolite text, pa citajte :).:
Hello everyone,
I just completed a podcast explaining how narrator works in the new
windows 8. Here is the link, and below are my opinions. I urge you to
share this with every blind person you know, before our time to change
things for the newest windows has passed.

Ok, now here are my thoughts. Long story short, Narrator is incredibly
disappointing, and yet Microsoft is emphatically stating how great the
upcoming accessibility will be on their developer blog.
I am sending this podcast to all of you with the hopes that you will
have ideas on how we can encourage blind consumers to pressure Microsoft
to do better. It is clear to me that Microsoft is interested in nothing
more than positive publicity for helping everybody out, yet does not
want to put in the effort to give the blind a truly usable screen
reader. Louis, narrator is no better in the consumer preview than it was
in the developer version of windows released last September. Microsoft
claims that over 100000 changes were made from the first preview of
windows to the current beta. And yet nothing was done for accessibility
in that time. If we do not voice our disappointment as a community, then
the final version of windows will likely not contain further
accessibility improvements.
To Marlaina and everybody else, you need to give this a listen to
understand what Microsoft claims they are doing versus what they are
actually doing. Scott, I know you were with me when I produced this
tonight. However, I cannot find the link needed to submit this to the
blind cool tech web site. Maybe one of you can get this posted to
serotalk? If not, then I hope you all will share this with every other
blind person you know. I normally don't get upset when things won't work
as advertised. However, Microsoft really should know better than to
produce such a flawed access solution. When better screen readers can be
found in free operating systems such as Linux, there is a definite
problem that needs to be addressed. And when they market accessibility,
they really should have a product that stands up to the claim that it
makes windows an inclusive operating system for everybody.
I don't mean to rant, but give this a listen and let me know what you
think...
Sve najbolje! Demir Ajvazi
