In that case, you should know your way around the Unix shell. Perhaps the path to happiness doesn't lie in Linux with a GUI and accessibility tools, but in sticking to the shell. There is a GUI-less distro designed especially for this: http://www.knopper.net/knoppix-adriane/index-en.html On a large screen, 80*25 text is pretty big and might be readable enough without further magnification. Modern Linux tools let you do a lot from the shell -- email, web, chat, music, video, image viewing, etc. -- Liam Proven • Profile: http://lproven.livejournal.com/profile Email: lpro...@cix.co.uk • GMail/G+/Twitter/Flickr/Facebook: lproven MSN: lpro...@hotmail.com • Skype/AIM/Yahoo/LinkedIn: liamproven Cell/Mobiles: +44 7939-087884 (UK) • +420 702 829 053 (ČR) -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
