narator should begin to speak in the ease of access center...it is supposed 
to by default anyway...but hey, hit tab twice and you've got it everytime 
anyway.
Narator has gotten me out of lots of jams when jaws stops speaking, or when 
setting up a new computer that doesn't have jaws...installing jfw from a 
thumb drive or the internet is great, but if you don't have speech to get it 
started it's pretty difficult.
