 This week the Accessible World Tek Talk event is privileged to have as
its guest
Jeff Levy of KNX Radio, Nationally renowned computer expert whose unique
and entertaining
style has helped hundreds of thousands abandon their fear of technology,
solve the
problems they may encounter and live harmoniously with our Computerized
friends.
He believes the human brain is the most powerful supercomputer on the
planet and
uses his to unmask the mystery and confusion that surrounded these, and
every future
model and type of computer and computerized gadgets. In short, Mr. Levy
takes the
complex and makes it understandable. Have you ever asked yourself these
questions:
What should I consider when buying a new laptop or desktop computer?
What's the difference
between wireless Web and WiFi? How does a plasma screen work? What are
computer viruses?
What is spyware? Are there any breakthroughs in terms of either memory or
hard disk
storage capacity? What new features are being included in new computers? >
Are they
building in wireless capabilities into the new desktops? How is Win-Vista
being received
in general? Has Microsoft done a good job building a more secure operating
system?
Is the user interface easier to navigate than previous versions of
Windows? Do refrigerators
with computers in their doors really save me from having spoiled milk? My
computer
keeps shutting down, why? Why can't I print with this new printer? Is it
important
to use disk cleanup, disk defrag and scandisk to keep my computer running
smoothly?
What should I do with temporary files and cookies?

Navigating independently through the sighted world's built environment has
been a continual challenge since time began to individuals with little or
no
eyesight. However, with each technological advance, researchers have been
optimistic that one day in the future a way will be found to not only
minimize the problem but eliminate it completely. During this week's
Accessible World Tek Talk program, Ward Bond will demonstrate that a
solution to the problem has been found And the future is NOW!
Talking SignsR/RIAS technology is a wireless communications system that
employs permanently installed transmitters and hand-held receivers.  Human
voice messages that identify landmarks and provide information are heard
through a receiver carried by the visually disabled traveler.  Talking
Signs
transmitters are used in buildings, to identify approaching buses, on bus
stops, in transit stations, at cross-walks, anywhere a sign is needed.  By
using Talking Signs systems, users are provided orientation and wayfinding
access in transit and to the built environment.
