Well, no but neither would perkyduck.  They're just keyboards.  That would be 
great for her own practice, but wouldn't give her visual representations of 
dots.  Duxbury would automatically translate to braille on windows.  Louis or 
Brailleblaster would do on mac, but that would be kind'a cheeting.  You know, 
the very best thing for this purpose would be to loan or buy a perkins 
brailler.  Vision aids sometimes has used ones on consignment.  They often 
appear on blindbst and free enterprise as well for between $250 and $350.  
Also, if she is still doing work for the Helen Keller centre, they may have a 
perkins they would be willing to loan out to her for a few weeks.

Best,

Erik Burggraaf
