Sis Carolyn, AAPL stock dropped again today? I thought it was TRENDING
UPWARDS! Oh well, may be when it hits $130 I could sneak in and grab
three--one for you, second for Colonel Monte, and the third tossed in the
air for anyone's catch!

With AAPL stores closed, the sE2020 may have to be purchased perhaps online
only for the moment. The stores of the major carriers in my village are
closed as well; a few of them tried to argue that they provide ESSENTIAL
SERVICES and should be allowed to stay open. Well, the politicians
governing here aren't buying that thought with a toothpick.

I still think though that Apple ventured into the wrong territory; rather
than seeking to do much too much, it should stick with what it does well and
let the market BLESS OR CURSE its position.

Sincerely,
Olusegun

What's different about when you call this number as opposed to calling the regular spectrum number? I'm in Texas but I still have spectrum.

Sometimes it goes silent.



I was wondering what steps you would try in such a
situation.



Is there a keyboard command for Task Manager? If the
computer is still silent, what would you do after issuing
that command?



Would you try pressing Alt F4 and then Alt Tab and
another Alt F4 until you think that you have shutdown all
open windows?



Would you try the Leasey command of Tilda followed
by either Alt Shift r for Restart or Tilda Alt Shift s for
shutdown?



I'm afraid I've done so many shutdowns and restarts
that I think that I may have caused damage to my computer.



I am hoping some safe successful solutions may be
suggested.



Any such will be gratefully received and acted upon!

Hi all,

I had a computer I called LG. It stood for Little Girl.
Remember?

There was a little girl,
That had a little curl,
Right in the middle of her forehead,
And when she was good,
She was very, very good,
But when she was bad,
She was horrid!

Yes, living here in North America, it seems the apple rules

When you take the price of a new s e, turnit into Canada
bucks, throw in a case, activation fee and taxes, the new s

eat pretty well for many many weeks on that much money, if I

Hey Colonel Monte, don't moan; just grab two, I'll come by
with Santa several weeks early to sneak down the chimney to
grab the second one and thus immerse myself in that great,
wild garden where only apples grow!

I think the article I posted was a tad too generous in
stating that Android is in 70% of the world. Android has
greater penetration worldwide than iOS does--closer to
80%-85%! But, of course, the iPhone is produced in China and
imported to our countries for resale. If China's 1.3
billion people each have one, there won't be enough iPhones
left to export.

I'm tickled grey to see Apple trying to invade a market
where it won't make real deep penetration. In most
countries of the world, $399.99 is hard to amass; an Android
can still be had for, say, $50-$200! It's going to be an
uphill climb for Apple for sure and I hope it doesn't SHOOT
ITSELF in both feet. Anyhow, it's stock was $292 today;
perhaps the release of the sE2020 bumped it up 'cause I had
seen it dive down to almost $165 recently.

Anyway, when I come grab my sE2020, we'll have a wild party
to which no virus shall be invited!!

Welcome (back) iPhone SE — but did Apple just cannibalize itself?

Don't judge an iPhone by its cover... Remember iPhone SE?
It's that little rectangle which you could actually operate
one-handedly without spraining a finger.
Apple
released it in 2016, then stopped selling it in 2018. Now, it's
shockingly resurrecting iPhone SE for 2020, starting at the
(relatively) lower price of $399.

list of 2 items
• Looks: Pretty much the same as the iPhone 8 — a 4.7-inch screen with
a frame around it and a home button with Touch ID. The real change
lies on the inside...
• Specs: Better camera equipped with 4K video and portrait mode. Also
boasts a more powerful processor with the new A13 Bionic chip (sounds
legit). Apple

says
it put "the brains" of iPhone 11 Pro in the body of SE.
list end

What interested us most was the timing of this launch...
Given the COVID-19 crisis, this might not seem like the best time to
ship a new product. Apple thinks it's a great time:

list of 2 items
• With the economy in shambles, it makes sense to introduce a
lower-cost phone. The new SE is $200 cheaper than the next "cheapest"
iPhone (and many Android models). A low-cost, high-performance phone
could thrive right now.
• With most Apple stores closed, people can't try before they buy.
Buying iPhones online becomes more attractive with a lower price and
newer product — Apple's trying to drive excitement for online orders
with this launch (people get hyped on pre-orders).
list end
THE TAKEAWAY

Is Apple cannibalizing itself?... Cannibalization occurs when a new
product is so irresistible it steals sales from your other (often
higher-priced) products.
Tesla's Model 3 stole sales from its Model S. But Apple probably did a
lot of research on this risk and decided
that:

• More Upgrades: iPhone users might be more likely to upgrade from
their old phones after the launch of SE, with that volume covering
lost sales from pricier models.
• More Market Share: With this lower-priced option, Apple might
convert some Androiders — Google 's Android still controls 70% of the
world's cell phones.
• But if fancy new iPhone users change to the lower-priced SE instead,
that's a problem for Apple.

I'm very excited for this lunch. I have had mine for over 3 years and it has worked great. In fact, I'm ordering mine tomorrow from Verizon. I'm getting mine right away because I need more memory. I was thinking of getting an eight until I heard on the news that this one is finally being launched. These will go quickly.

Hi List, I am using a Windows 10 desktop computer using Jaws 2020 and Leasey 5.13. 

 

Sometimes it goes silent. 

 

I was wondering what steps you would try in such a situation.

 

Is there a keyboard command for Task Manager? If the computer is still silent, what would you do after issuing that command?

I suffer the same sudden loss of Speech when using last years version of
Jaws 2019.


I do use the Alt-F4 keys to shut down, or I hope I am shutting things down.


I then hold my breath, say a little Prayer, and press and hold the Button
that turns my computer on, and I keep it pressed until the computer is
totally silent.


I then wait about 10 seconds, and press the On switch again, and let it
Boot up Normally.


I suffer this problem most often while in Thunderbird. How about you?


I have attempted to start NVDA and even Narrator, but on my System, when it
goes Silent, it remains quiet.


I have a friend who also uses Win 10, and he has the newest JAWS, and he
too suffers the Silent Treatment. But, his System will let him start
Narrator. Once it is started, he can then move around an shut everything
down normally.
