	I'm not, basically.  My bank wouldn't allow a non-commercial web 
browser to access the accounts, so I use Firefox in Windows XP, with the 
NVDA screen reader (http://www.nvda-project.org).  I do pretty much all 
my web purchases from the Windows GUI.  The rest I normally use 
edbrowse.  Has a 2 to 4 hour learning curve to master, but once you 
start getting the hang of it and work extensively with the search 
function, once you're familiar with a particular web page layout, you 
can navigate almost as fast as if you were sighted.  Wish his Jupiter 
screen reader was a Debian package.  Karl Dahlk is pretty familiar with 
how the blind work best and fastest.
