Well, from your perspective, it is a "done deal." However, I noticed you didn't include the cost of a braille display, an item some of us must have to access a PC. Since we have no idea of the individual lifestyle of each person on the BN List, being judgemental is highly inappropriate.

Hi all,

Bob, I hope you didn't lump me in with the rest of the rabble.
Anyway, there are ways to get cheap PC's and now there are ways
to get
relatively cheap screen readers, so it is indeed possible to have
both
a BN and a PC. There are some tasks which are better performed
by a
PC. Downloading books from Web Braille is one of these
apparently, or
at least it is for me.

Honestly, Bob, if you want a PC, they're available for under
$800, and
you can get a good screen reader in Freedom Box. You don't need
to
spend a mint.

Ann P.
