[Pibe-division] braille embosser question

[Marianne Denning]

Thanks Eric.  That is great news.  When I buy
 a new embosser (20 years from now) I will be happy to have one with
tactile graphics capabilities.

Next question, would people recommend a family purchase an embosser
with both capabilities?  There are many other ways to create tactile
graphics.
