Re: [orca-list] Alternative to Ubuntu?

[Craig Blake <cmb1589 gmail com>]

Kyle, 

Nice to hear you're on Arch, and from your description an so long as
they put espeakup up or whatever for the installation that would be
great.
I am looking for a lightweight, but robust, and would be good for web
development, server administration, and programming too. I've marked
Fedora, Debian and I might just mark Arch down too. How's things with
Orca in Arch, assuming you use it as a screen reader and not it's
magnifier?

End of the day, after a few more suggestion, if any more come through, I
can also virtual machine these and test out what I think will be great
for me.

Thanks to all,
Craig
