Hi everyone.
|I work for a charity that provides computers and adaptive technology to the disabled (Aidis Trust).
In an attempt to remove possibly the key barrier these people face, COST!. I am looking into Linux (namely Ubuntu) to see if it can offer anything in regard to decent access technology.
I have looked at the standard mags and the orca screenreader is going to be tested by one of our blind volunteers.
However - I need other peoples reviews of the software available, with its good and bad points. If anyone knows of any other features in Ubuntu that can improve accessability ( i have not had time to check Universe yet) then please point them out to me....
Many thanks in advance....
