Hi,

The attempt with windows and the camera module was for someone that doesn't
care much for computers plus I bought her a moultree game cam instead.

I use Rasp PI's for development and I also have a PI with a bluetooth and
WiFi dongle. This allows me to use this device as a stand alone portable
computer in my pocket. I am only running linux since I am much more powerful
with a bash terminal than I could ever be on a windows.

I would say running Windows on a PI is not your best bet. The RAM is
increased and you could probably get a version of Windows up and running on
the PI but once you allocate the memory for Windows, JAWS, then whatever
other program you are planning to run you are going to over heat that micro
very quickly if it even runs at all. If there is any way you can use Linux
that is your best bet then the PI is going to be amazing for you. 

Go Devils!

up your progress especially as regards accessibility I will read with
interest.  Usually when I run Linux, it's strictly command line interface
since I don't yet have a screen for the computer and the graphical user
interfaces eith won't install or won't run post-install without that screen.
Fortunately, archlinux isn't so fussy.
