That's what I thought.  There are programs that read the text on the screen out loud for visually impaired.

I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

My Aunt has recently become impaired, and I got her a computer that is supposed to do this. I have the same toshiba where I can figure it out on mine, and set her(s)  up to do the same thing I hope.

Anyone know where to find out how?
