for the visually impaired 

For the visually impaired, technology can be a path to more fulfilling
lifestyle. Unfortunately, the graphic interfaces most computers use can be a
hinderance.

Translating text into audio is one of the solutions people with limited or
no eyesight employ to overcome that barrier. Thunder is an award-winning,
free screen-reader program that does just that.

It helps blind and visually impaired people navigate their computers by
reading text, menus, links and buttons. Using Thunder, you won't need your
mouse. You'll be able to hear buttons and icons to find your way around your
computer.

Thunder is available in five languages and installs quickly and easily.
There are also several manuals for beginning users to help you make the most
of this life-changing software.

Cost: Free
Systems: Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7
