Hello Heather,

How are you?  Thank yo so much for all the information you send me.  This
is a great help.  We have been trying the Demo Version of Jaws and since
our computer is so old, the rebooting process is painfully so long, by
then, Justin gets so bored so the demo did not work for him at all.

He got excelletn computer skills and hate to waste it.  He should be doing
review of all his homeworks to build on his Braille Literacy.


Thanks,


TE
