I am the co-founder of an organization called Adaptive Equipment Information
Chain. We are a group of consumers who have computers and are also
handicapped. We started this forum because we felt that it was important for
people seeking info on adaptive equipment to be able to talk to people who
were actually using it.

I will go through our limited (as of yet), sources and try to dig up what I
can. I hope you get this. I have saved the message to disk so have your
address. Will try the Gateway when and if I come up with anything.

Bye for now, see you on-line.

Ann P.
