not quite andrew no. It is certainly cut down. You can't write your own scripts and I understand that the option to highlight the cursor in a size and with a colour you want is missing though please forgive me if I am wrong about this. It only claims to work with a certain number of applications as well. Still, do keep in mind the reduced cost, though for some strange reason I think it is not available as a stand alone product instead you have to buy an RNIB rip-off priced machine which is fine I suppose if you need them to set it up for you but it is very expensive otherwise. You may as well buy a PC from another source and save your money for buying a fully featured screenreader. regards graham Graham Page Home Phone: 0207 265 9493 Mobile: 07753 607980 Fax: 0870 706 2773 Email: gpage@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx MSN: gabriel_mcbird@xxxxxxxxxxx Skype: gabriel_mcbird ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andrew Ireland" <a.emaillists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, August 16, 2007 10:09 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Mercury Screen Reader It's Supernova.
