unfortunately will work for me.  As one application which doesn't work 
well under wine, and it's hard to get people excited about solving the 
more general problem.  The application is NaturallySpeaking, and the 
general problem is handicap accessibility.

If I'm going to use Ubuntu, I need to be able to dictate or else only 
work a couple of hours until the burning in my hands gets to be more 
than I can bear.  Is it any wonder that I'm looking for 15 minutes 
solutions.  ;-) and the three-page wizard only manual just don't make it.

But if you don't have ability, hopefully you have money because there 
will be a fund raiser sometime in August or September through a 
nonprofit to get the money to make the wine support happen.

more we solidify details.
