I refuse to use rehab for important things I'll need, such as a laptop. I'm pretty much set though with everything. I'm able to make money. But if it wasn't for JFW, I wouldn't be able to. I suppose we're getting off topic, so let's leave it at this.

I am sure there are services here as well but unfortunately I don't know of
any.  I didn't have much choice but to go through RSC here.  But I do want
to work again too, but I don't like the way they do things at all.

Note: I've changed the subject to avoid confusion.

Yes, RSB is that way here too. But I don't believe this particular program
has anything to do with rehab services. All they would probably do is inform
people who don't know about it. I've heard about it from a friend, and I
wasn't sure they'd pay for SMA's until I needed one. I just simply emailed
them, and they promptly ordered one for me. Now this really does need to
happen in all states.

Well you are very lucky.  In Ohio RSC says if you don't do as they say and
try to gain employment then they have the option to come and take their
stuff back.

Not my state. Every blind person is entitled to internet access according to this program. Check it out if you'd like.

They only help out persons that are able to get employment, otherwise you
are on your own.

I didn't pay for JAWS. My state got it for me. I thought every state's rehab services would help with this. In Missouri (my state,) it's called the TAP-I (telecommunications access program (I for internet.))

Oh yeah I wouldn't either now since I was able to get JAWS, but I know there
are many out there that can't use a computer because they can't afford the
$1000 for JAWS or WE.

I'm too used to jaws commands. If microsoft ever did something like that, I'd probably not switch.
