[blindlaw] A question about westlaw website

I was one of the test cases for Westlaw Next, and while it does work fairly well with assistive technology, I still find myself preferring text.westlaw.com as well.  I do not know if it is truly more efficient, or if it is because I have some residual vision and thus find the screen less distracting.  The only annoyance with the text-only version, at least on our network, is that you MUST use a client identifier / dummy identifier when logging in, or it will not take your username and password.  I have not had this happen on the more "modern" versions of westlaw.

Hi List

First time posting to the list.  
The text based version works better.

Hi folks:

Do you use west law to research court opinions?

If so, can someone explain me how to do it?

Regards.
