[nfbcs] Multi-Post: Braille Displays and feedback.

[Stanzel, Susan - FSA, Kansas City, MO]

The sighted people at my work use two monitors all the time. I guess I could have $20,000 worth of Braille displays on my computer (grin). I'm really just kidding here, but how would one copy of JAWS keep track of two displays? I have a Focus 80 display.

OK, Guys...

I just decided to borrow some old equipment to tinker with, and get used to braille on a PC with JAWS.

It has been a while since my System Analyst days, and something just struck me.

Any of you who are partially sighted, or who have recently lost sight, will know what a multi head ( monitor ) machine is, and how much fun it is to be able to use multiple monitors.

Does anyone have any experience with multiple braille displays on one
computer?   I mean... I can certainly see how it would be nice ( and nutz )
to try.

Since a braille terminal / display is effectively our monitor, I was just hypothesising... Does anyone know if it will work?
If so, what hardware have you used / seen like this?  Does someone out there need a fun, quirky research project for a CS class?? LOL!!

Ian
