Easy things are often amusing and relaxing, but their value soon
fades. Greater pleasure, deeper satisfaction, and higher wages are
associated with genuine accomplishments, with the successful

seamlessly blending live access to all aspects of the Internet such as
ubiquitous assistance, Web-surfing, blogging, remote software
development, social computing and electronic messaging into the audio

<h2 id="org32935e7"><span class="section-number-2">5.</span> Establishing Liberty, Equality And Freedom:</h2>
<div class="outline-text-2" id="text-5">
<p>
  Never a toy system, Emacspeak is voluntarily bundled with all
major Linux distributions. Though designed to be modular,
distributors have freely chosen to bundle the fully integrated
system without any undue pressure—a documented success for
the integrated innovation embodied by Emacspeak. As the system
evolves, both upgrades and downgrades continue to be available at
the same zero-cost to all users. The integrity of the Emacspeak
codebase is ensured by the reliable and secure Linux platform
and the underlying GIT versioning software used to develop and distribute the system.
</p>

<p>
Extensive studies have shown that thanks to these features, users
consider Emacspeak to be absolutely priceless. Thanks to this
wide-spread user demand, the present version remains   free of cost 
as ever—it is being made available at the same zero-cost as
previous releases.
</p>

<p>
At the same time, Emacspeak continues to innovate in the area of
eyes-free Assistance and social interaction and carries forward the
well-established Open Source tradition of introducing user interface
features that eventually show up in luser environments.
</p>

<p>
On this theme, when once challenged by a proponent of a crash-prone
but well-marketed mousetrap with the assertion "Emacs is a system from
the 70's", the creator of Emacspeak evinced surprise at the unusual
candor manifest in the assertion that it would take popular
idiot-proven interfaces until the year 2070 to catch up to where the
Emacspeak audio desktop is today. Industry experts welcomed this
refreshing breath of Courage Certainty and Clarity (CCC) at a time
when users are reeling from the Fear Uncertainty and Doubt (FUD)
unleashed by complex software systems backed by even more convoluted
press releases.

<h2 id="org37e63bc"><span class="section-number-2">6.</span> Independent Test Results:</h2>
<div class="outline-text-2" id="text-6">
<p>
Independent test results have proven that unlike some modern (and
not so modern) software, Emacspeak can be safely uninstalled without
adversely affecting the continued performance of the computer. These
same tests also revealed that once uninstalled, the user stopped
functioning altogether. Speaking with Aster Labrador, the creator of
Emacspeak once pointed out that these results re-emphasize the
user-centric design of Emacspeak; “It is the user &#x2014; and not the
computer&#x2013; that stops functioning when Emacspeak is uninstalled!”.

Emacspeak 99) code named BlackLab&#x2013; continued to innovate in the areas
of speech interaction and interactive accessibility.</li>
<li>Emacspeak-8.0 &#x2013;(AKA Emacspeak-98++) code named BlackDog&#x2013; was a major upgrade to
the speech output extension to Emacs.</li>
<li>Emacspeak-95 (code named Illinois) was released as OpenSource on
the Internet in May 1995 as the first complete speech interface
to UNIX workstations. The subsequent release, Emacspeak-96 (code

enhancements to the interface. Emacspeak-97 (Tennessee) went
further in providing a true audio desktop. Emacspeak-98
