There is a Linux distribution called Sonar. http://sonargnulinux.com/  <http://sonargnulinux.com/> Sonar is the most accessible operating system with free assistive technology. It can be downloaded and installed on computer hardware of your choice for free. Jonathan Nadeau started the Accessible Computing Foundation and the foundation has been the main sponsor of Sonar Linux.

Hello,


We are in the initial stages of research and pricing for equipment used by the visually impaired.   At the moment we have one "low vision reader" a couple of magnifying glasses and the Ease of Access software that comes with the Windows 7 operating system.  I would like to get other libraries thoughts and equipment used if possible/


Thank you in advanced for any replies.
