as a visually impaired person myself, i hate the first few seconds of the voice over. consider re-writing it, because it comes across as insulting, not helpful

The narration did sound rather condescending.

I beleave this is a very good iniciative but the voice over ruins this presentation; for gods sake:

I agree. Although I found a lot of the narration very amusing for that reason: "a totally visually impaired person".

Or at the end the narrator leaves us in deep contemplation with: "it was we the normally sighted people who have been blind throughout to the wonders of Open Source technologies on the Linux platform".

The elevator music also give this video a lot of character.

But seriously, it is really great to hear about deployments of Orca around the world.

Yeah, it's all "Ha, you can't see this. And WE call YOU, THE MINORITY"

Like, stop being a jerk, narrator.

This is wonderful.
I'm also VI, and want to move to linux, but couldn't find a good screen-reader.
This sounds like it will work.

It sounds like the eSpeak API.
Correct?

Thanks for sharing.
