I use Dragon naturally speaking�. it is a speech to text program� I talk to the computer and the words appear on the screen�. it does require a little training. However, for the most pare works pretty good.. this is not a difficult program to use. It has been around for about 10 years, and the newest version. I'm in love with it. It also has read feature so that you can read the screen to you in a word document tried it out.

If you go to the British dyslexia Association website you will find several products there that Mark dealt to help you the one I use is called penfriend it on a USB stick you put it into the computer it does not load up any software onto that computer is allows you to type words onto the screen and then it will give you suggestions on what those words are is not using predictive text if you cannot read the word you put your cursor over the word it will say the word to you you can use a discreet earpiece to help you with this at least you can move from Compute computer without ever loading up the software on the computer hope this helps you
