The Optacon II had two good things though. One was the extra video setting
to allow us to read other portions of windows screens with the crt lens.
The other was the screen-reader called o2pc which came with it. I used
that to read the computer screen until I got a braille display. If they
had only kept updating that, imagine the benefit. It was a little slow
compared to speech or braille but boy was it accurate and boy did you have
control! I miss it. If any of you programmers wanted to playwith it I
could send you a copy but even TSI wouldn't devulge the source code.
