Re: [orca-list] Mint or Ubuntu, which has more accessible Mate?

[Krishnakant Mane <kkmane riseup net>]

Hi alex,

That is a good suggestion.

But there are a few things I have to consider.

Firstly our company entirely uses Ubuntu.

It has a professional team and every one else is pretty much satisfied
with it.

Secondly, some emails on this thread suggest that Ubuntu-mate
accessibility has really really improved.

Third problem is that till date I could not have a talking installation
for Debian going for me.

I do use Debian for some mission critical servers for sure.

But I have been so far happy with Ubuntu on the desktop.

Just that Unity is going and now we must have a choice.

Happy hacking.

Krishnakant.
