I just want folks to know that you could purchase a computer, OCR
software such as Kurzweil1000 or Openbook or for even less money Text
Cloner, and a PC for well under $2000.
Reading machines are overpriced, no matter whether they are made by
Humanware or whoever.
And, they are not updated as often as software packages which means that
you are not getting the latest in OCR technology.
