Can anybody shed some light on this subject?
Rumour has it that there is a Blind Macintosh Users Group out there somewhere,
and we are keen to get in contact with them. Any information will be gratefully
recieved.

>From the School of Physiotherapy:

To whom it may concern,

I am interested in finding out about any software and/or hardware that may be
used to assist partially sighted or near-blind persons in using the Macintosh.
In particular, I would like to hear about software which could be used in
conjunction with a word processor package to read the text as it is typed  or
as requested by the user. Any suggestions or advice that you could offer would
be greatly appreciated, and I may be contacted at the following address:
