  bk243April 17, 2011

  Pros

  - Best free Screen Magnifier / Zoom tool I've found after trying many - Does what it says on my old PIII / XP backup system - Optional Speech plugin (haven't tried this tho) - Works inside zoom window where all of the others I've tried did not

  Cons

  - Slows down my old PIII / XP system a bit - UI could be more intuitive & it took me a while to figure out how to minimize/ maximize it

  Summary

  - Best free Screen Magnifier/ Zoom tool I've found after trying more than a dozen.

• Useful product for persons with vision impairment.

  Pros

  Very good screen magnifier for free. Useful function is that you can run it from a USB jump drive or CD without isntalling on a computer so you may be able to use it on public computers such as at the library.

  Cons

  If it was combined with a screen reader it would be even better.

• Free and Excellent

  Pros

  My Dad has Macular Degeneration and I've been searching for a really good magnifier that is simple to use. So far this one fits the bill nicely.

  Cons

  I really could not figure out how to use the full screen mode.

• A quality free product that almost achieves the main use cases of expensive ones

  Pros

  Caret tracking is a great addition.<p>Please consider making this product open source. This is the best free implementation yet and is a great boon to the visually disabled community, especially if a community effort was able to back the development to improve the product.

  Cons

  Caret tracking does not always work as expected, for example, when using Yahoo mail under Firefox (at very least).
