First of all, I'm from the "old school" - when I went to high school, you
could not graduate without learning how to type at *least* 40 wpm with no
errors - on a MANUAL typewriter!  So I've always had excellent touch typing
skills.  Keyboards come with two raised lines on the F and the J keys - I
feel for that position, and then I'm golden.

My level of sight loss is to the point where I cannot read at all.  There
was no "in between time" where I could use a computer with larger fonts or
anything.  It went from all to nothing.  I use a screenreading program
called JAWS for Windows.  It works with text as well as graphics.  Perhaps
some of our macular degenerations folks (Dan Roberts??) may be able to help
you with monitor settings.

Keep me (us) posted on your progress.  We CARE!
