I have been requested by one of my friend to teach him Linux. He is blind by birth, he uses NVDA with Windows for using computers thesedays, but now he wish to use Linux. I tried Orca with gnome but it doesn't seem to be a good bet. Does anyone who know or have an experience with a better software for Linux ?. He is not just an average user, he is a journalist so keep it in mind while suggesting other alternatives.

He is blind himself, and does development in Linux, using the desktop as fluently as a sighted user. Please try searching for his contact information on Google, or failing that, contact me off list for his email address. Regards, Gora </blockquote></div>
