Amy,

Take a look at this for magnification.  It may not have all the detail and finese you want in a screen magnifier.  However, it has the majic word on the site, "FREE".    You click on it and you can move it around the screen.  I've tried it and it works for me.  I have Zoomtext, but do not know how compatable it is with other screenreaders.

Hi All - Does anyone have experience with a portable mouse-like CCTV that magnifies on a computer screen (specifically, a laptop)? There is one sold by Freedom Vision called Opti-Mouse. I use a TVi Color for the kitchen to magnify on a TV screen, but I'm specifically looking for something that works with the laptop screen.
Thanks.
Amy B.
