[nabs-l] free speech software

[Brandon Keith Biggs]

Hello,
There is a multitude of free screen readers out there. System access and 
NVDA are two of the more popular kinds of screen readers. Both have lots of 
functionality that in many cases is at least comparable to Jaws.
If she's getting a Mac book, there is no need for an extra screen reader as 
voiceover is already installed. If she is getting a Google notebook, cromvox 
is available, but I think anyone would be much happier with System access or 
NVDA.
If she's getting a Linux system that's another story and I advise she get on 
a blind programming list for that.
Thank you,

Brandon Keith Biggs

Hello NABS community-
I have a friend who is looking for frees speech software for her netbook.
She is not able to purchase JFW or Window eyes at this time. Any information
you can provide me with would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Tina
