Hmmm, which part of the following excerpt do you find outdated? And I
quote:

"
   Blind people installing Red Hat using Speakup are also invited to
call
   Bill Acker by voice telephone, during the evening and on weekends
only
   please, for direct, personal assistance at +1.303.777.8123 in the
USA's
   Mountain Time Zone, -02:00 U.S. Eastern Time (New York). But, please
do
   not call during business hours."

Hmmm, maybe the "Red Hat" part threw you off? It's true. We really
should have changed that to "Fedora" a long time ago. The telephone
support offer has been there since this distro was called Red Hat. I
guess I never realized how confusing that was.
