The most obvious area for us we believe is to enhance our computers for the blind and partially sighted sighted. To this end we have got ZoomText for the PC which works ok when connected to the mainframe machines over kermit but has some problems when used over a Novell network. We are also using Artic's Symphonix Business Vision voice synthesizer. We need a good wordprocessor to work with these as we feel that Microsoft Word is not ideal for these. Any ideas? Is anybody going to the Conference on Computers for the Disabled in Zurich in December? Regards Brendan
