Susan,

You use an 80 cell?  I know they're long, but do you like it?  Is it worth 
learning how to use?
I am of the opinion I need one, and I know there are many different ones out 
there.  I'd love to hear your thoughts!?!?

: 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!!
