In the United States, the university is required by law to make your 
textbooks available to you in an accessible format. You still have to 
pay for them though. After you sign up for the course, contact the 
school to tell them you'll need an accessible version of the textbook. 
Do this as early as possible because the school may need time to get the 
ebook from the publisher.

I'm a linux user and I always do all my research and coursework with 
virtualbox for linux. It has a very nice command line interface.I don't 
know how accessible the version of virtualbox for Windows is.
