I use a screan reader called, Jaws. Its made by this company called Pulsedata, or Freedom Scientific. This software causts about $800 to $1000 per disk. There's more than the software, I also have a small braille notetaker. It is almost like a regular P.C., but your Windows software and other components have to be modefied for this piece of equipment. This braille device is very expensive, it causts about $3400. I had to order this stuff through The Texas Commition for the Blind. The Texas Commition for the Blind is an organization that helps blind or visually impaired adults find jobs, pay for state university tuition, or a community college tuition. If you're blind, and you are going to college, they will sometimes hook you up with over about $40000 in equipment, it depends on the counceler or case worker that you have, including the deal that both you, and he/she has made for your education. In order to get the services from the Texas Commition for the Blind, you must already be a cliant, or registor with one of the workers there. You'd be surprised at all of the things that a blind person could do. I suggest there should be somekind of forum or thread, that way not only the people who are disabled could post on there, but everybody else as well.
