Vinux is a version of the Linux operating system that has been optimized for
the needs of blind and low vision users. Vinux provides two screen-readers,
screen magnification, many other features and support for USB Braille
displays. Join hosts Nancy and Peter Torpey as they speak with Rob Whyte of
the Vinux project about what's new in their latest release, Vinux 4.0 . 

FYI we also did an episode a while back which featured the original
developers of Vinux.  Below are the links and a brief description for that
episode:

Hosts Peter Torpey and Nancy Goodman Torpey devote this entire show to
Vinux, a fully accessible and easy to use computer operating system. Besides
describing how it works, they interview two of its creators and explain how
you can get involved in follow-on improvements, updates and upgrades.
