[Athen] Screen reader and Eee PC?

[Gabbert, Darren L.]

I am working with someone who is blind that is in need of a low/no cost screen reader for her PC.  It turns out she has been given a Eee PC.  I am perfectly unfamiliar with this puppy.  It is apparently a Linux based laptop.  It is running an Intel R Mobile Processor, 1GB RAM, 4GB Hard Drive, and runs some kind of word processing programs called Star Office 8 and Ez PenPower Jr.  Seems to use Firefox for a browser.

Anyway, I need some suggestions here on providing screen reader capabilities.  Thanks in advance...
