[Blindtlk] open book

[chris nusbaum]

Hi everyone,

I've only tried Kurzweil, and love it! Are there any
advantages/disadvantages to OpenBook vs Kurzweil? Does it help that
OpenBook is made by the same company that makes JAWS if you use JAWS?

"The real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight. The real
problem is the misunderstanding and lack of education that exists. If
a blind person has the proper training and opportunity, blindness can
be reduced to a mere physical nuissence." -- Kenneth Jernigan
