Penny, In the August 2004 Ziegler magazine, there was an article that stated that each state has technology assisted program and it gave a phone number to call in each state. It stated that the loans were low interest and that they were to be used to purchase assistive technology. It said you didn't need to be employed either. So it's just a matter of finding out whom to contact in your individual state. Isaac
