The screen reader is Google's own. On ChromeBook, it is called ChromeVox. It is
quite a rudementary screen reader. I purchased an Acer with 4 GB Ram and 32 GB

No, it's an application about 500 meg in size that youdownload and then run to

Then of course you have to set it up.

I always get nervous when I do a clean install but I have a great

Interesting. I might have to get that. App store shows server as being
$20. Do you just upgrade your existing OSX install or does it wipe
everything? When OSX gets upgraded do you have to buy the upgraded
server as well or are updates free like in the non-server version?

True, and it is more involved to activate TalkBack each time for a blind person
independently.
Yes, I am now working with both a Google Nexus and an Acer Google ChromeBook.
Note: I have not yet installed BrailleBack onto the Nexus. I have not been able
to get braille working on the ChromeBook.
Often it is the usb driver from the usb manufactor device that is the problem.
Often it is possible to download usb drivers from the developers website. I
recommend trying this first.
