Duxbury Systems is proud to have MegaDots as part of its product line.  The
current version of MegaDots is now 2.2.

Some of MegaDots' strengths are:
• tools for easily creating a variety of braille constructs, including
tables, footnotes, line numbered poetry or prose,       dictionary diacritics,
and more according to BANA textbook format requirements;
• tools for easily moving around in your document;
• tools for changing your document efficiently;
• ability to bring in material from a variety of sources, and to produce it
in a variety of formats.

While MegaDots is a DOS application, most current MegaDots users work with
MegaDots from their Windows desktop.  MegaDots works with MS-DOS, Windows
3.x, Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, and
Windows XP.  Some inkprint printers are "Windows only," requiring the
machinery of Windows to perform basic operations.  These inkprint printers
do not work with MegaDots.  MegaDots works with all commercially available
braille embossers.  MegaDots speaks with screen readers that work with
MS-DOS applications, including JAWS for Windows.  If a blind user is using
the Window-Eyes
screen reader, they need to use a separate DOS screen reader with MegaDots.

The purchase price for a new single-license MegaDots program is $595.
Anyone who has purchased MegaDots or a MegaDots update within the last three
years can upgrade to version 2.2 for $195 (which covers any further
downloadable updates within a year).  The update price is $295 if the
purchase history on the MegaDots program is outside of this three year
window.

We also sell the MegaMath and Beginner Braille add-ons to MegaDots.
MegaMath (available for $325) provides tools for creating Nemeth Code
material.  Beginner Braille (available for $75) lets you choose which
contractions are to be used in material for students learning braille,
working toward full grade two braille.  MegaDots owners can also purchase
the Duxbury Braille Translator for Windows (DBTW) for a discounted price of
$395.
