Re: Your first screen reader!
My first screenreader was Braille Edit with an Echo II synthesizer on an Apple II E, and then I moved up to JFD Jaws for Dos in 1985.

Hello all,

Without getting off topic regarding Jaws, I'd be interested to know what
your first memories of screen readers are. Mine begin with Jaws 3.2 on an
old Gateway PC back in 1997. Good oal Doubletalk PC couldn't even handle the 
Romance languages for heaven's sake!

Thanks,

Ben
