an added note, as far as I have herd, there is a ubuntu that can be run from a CD, so you do not have to install it to work with it.

Well, i'm in the same situation as you.Since there is so much talk about ubuntu and orca this days, i would suggest to you to try ubuntu, specially after april 25, when new version comes out, which will enable the instalation of ubuntu on the same windows partition, so you can try it and see if you like it or not. Ofcourse i would suggest to you to backup your windows before you start messing up with ubuntu. The reason i'm suggesting ubuntu for you is because its got built it braille and speech support so in the same time you can have output on both devices or you can choose if you want to use speech or braille. Btw if i'm correct ubuntu uses brtty for braille support. ----- Original Message ----- From: "public.niran" <public.niran@xxxxxxxxx>To: <programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, April 15, 2008 7:29 PM Subject: Which Linux + screen reader to choose?Hi everyone,I am a windows user using jaws.
