This allows you to hear ACB Radio just like any other > regular radio station without being tied to the computer. Mike Calvo of > Inhouse Radio Networks talks about the Radio Webcaster, and some very > exciting plans they have for expanding the product's functionality. > > It's a holiday weekend, so maybe you've taken some time to unwind and play > a few games. But accessible games are still a little difficult to find. One > person who's changing all that is Robert Betz, who has written a number of > accessible games that currently work with JAWS for Windows. We demonstrate > a couple of these games and find out if Jonathan can beat the computer at > Accessible Battleships and whether he walks out with any money left after a > game of Accessible Blackjack. We'll also talk to Robert about plans he has > to ensure that those who don't use JFW can also play these games. > > What do love and the Windows Registry have in common? Well both can make > you laugh, make you cry, and they both can cause unpredictable things to > happen. DJC unravels some of the mysteries of the Windows Registry in this > week's show. We'll leave the topic of love for a future edition. > > So, you have a huge MP3 collection, but you want to take a regular audio CD > of some of those files to play in a car, a home stereo, or a diskman? No > problem. We'll hear a review of a very nice utility that makes burning MP3 > files to audio CD a breeze. > > Know UK is a comprehensive British reference service for those who need to > conduct research, and it's free to blind people thanks to the work of the > National Library for the Blind of the UK.
