It may be different for others, but I find it much easier to work with
written documents.  Would that be more work or trouble than you want to do
on this? (I haven't done one, but would guess the work of making a podcast
would be different but not necessarily less.)  Anyway, just a thought.

Hi,
First, I'm playing with arch again, and still loving it, I think of it as
slackware, done right. Not that slackware's bad, by any stretch, it was my
first distro, after all. Anyway, I'm about to record a step-by-step install
guide, similar to what Michael Whapples did quite some time ago, now that
arch's install methods changed again.

I was then thinking of expanding it into something like the really old shows
that featured on main menu, way back in 2000, through 2002 or so. 
So it would be a podcast of getting around, and doing common tasks in linux,
focusing on the terminal at first. Thoughts or feedback?

Second, what are peoples experience with tools like emacspeak,
speech-dispatcher, and gnome/KDE accessibility, things you don't hear a lot
about these days? Are they still viable options for access, especially
emacspeak?

Thanks,
Arthur
