   @devinprater How is Orca these days? Is it still inferior to windows 2000's Narrator? Can it do a decent job of handling documents in Google Docs? Things that professional blind people need.

     Hey y'all, did you know CUPS, the Linux printing system, supports Braille embossers? Yep. Did you know you can even send your embosser images, and it'll emboss that? Yep. No expensive image to Braille program needed. We just need a good GUI lol, and Linux would have a lot of what we need, built into just about any distro. BRLTTY supports Braille displays, even the Canute 360 and HID displays. Such a good base to work on!
