<DIV></DIV>Thanks, John!<BR><BR>I should have said that I'm looking for a
general AT resource list for individuals to know what alternatives exist rather
than just one of each type of item. For example, screen magnification
programs include ZoomText, Magic, Supernova, Lunar, Big Shot. Screenreaders
include: HAL, JAWS, and Window Eyes. Just figured there's someone who's
already come up with a list and hoping they would share. It's for a
presentation to a group of parents of students in K-12 and what type of AT might
be used in college (or on their way to college).<BR><BR>Thanks to
all!<BR><BR>Heidi<BR><BR>
