[lbo-talk] Note on Low vision and web sites

[Carrol Cox]

We have been considering larger screen . The 30 in. screen has come down 
to $1200 from some absurd figure. We'll probably be getting that before 
long. With the 54 in. screen I'd probably need  roller skates. My 
computer glasses focus at 6 in, so there's a trade-off there also. I'm 
using the ZoomText reader more and more, though it's not easy to 
overcome habits of 70 years. Jan did mention recently that I have it set 
at a speed uncomfortably rapid forher. That is encouraging. I'm 
skeptical that the web screen problem will ever be solved very 
satisfactorily. (It will improve when Jan retires in August 2012 -- then 
the remedy of "Jaaaan..." will be more available. :-)
