   Hi Tommy,
I apologise I interfere in your conversation, but let me clarify something
about Braillex IB80/40 PIEZO.

TC> The nice thing about the Braillex is that
TC>it plugs directly into a serial port and has no software to
TC>install. This allows you to read your ram test and all other boot
TC>info.

   No tommy, Braillex has its driver card you have to put inside any PC's slot,
so that it is completely indipendent form the software running.
   You can use Braillex under MS-DOS, UNIX, XENIX, 327x emulators and whatever
you want, with no changes and no compatibility problems.
   Braillex has an 80 or 40 braille cells window you can move across the
PC's screen, reading text and attributes.
   You can also follow hard and soft cursors simply setting them and monitor
user defined screen areas when they change their text or attributes.
   A "cursor rooting" function allow to place the PC's cursor at the
line,column you want, simply pusging a corresponding small key on the Braillex,
that seems a good feature working with Word processors, Databases and dos
utilities such as the Norton Commander.
   Finally, a 4 extra braille cells give information about the braille line
number, the cursor position, the cursor tracking on/off, etc...

      Sincerely
Mario
