There was a discussion on PUBLIB over the past couple of days regarding
screen readers for the visually impaired so I thought I'd pass along
these links. :)

Note that I did a copy/paste and have not evaluated any of the links.

There is an open source reader called NVDA (
http://www.nvda-project.org/ ) I have never used it so I cannot vouch
for its efficacy. NonVisual Desktop Access (NVDA) is a free and open
source screen reader for the Microsoft Windows operating system.
