Yes that was a bit of a rant. But that's ok. I can take ranting; and,
yes, I do realize how much work goes into making websites and
applications accessible for people using screen readers. Still, because
of the pricing of the different screen reader software packages, a
little more accommodation needs to be made for those of us who might be
able to afford to buy the full versions of the software with financing
of some kind. I know I would appreciate some accommodation. Yes, I do
work; however, I can't just pull $895 or whatever the current price for
Jaws is out of the sky. I'm just looking for resources offering grants
or financial help and I'll do the rest. I don't think that's too much
to ask.
