Hello everyone,

I am looking for a good scrren magnifier, preferably with a 1.5x
magnification option (and higher), that is not too expensive.  I've tried
Zoomtext and Supernova, and like them, but I was wondering if there was a
similar program that was a little less expensive.  Other free programs I
tested magnifiy only a small portion of the screen, which I find
uncomfortable.

I would also like to get some recommendations for web design courses,
intensive (3-6 weeks),  in the city.  Is anyone in the list doing work in
web design/e-commerce?  I'd like to find out what kind of training they
would recommend.

Also, I am looking for bar/strip magnifiers, the type that allow you to
see many words in a sentence at once.  I have gone to both the Lighthouse
(they carry one that is about 3" or 4" long) and NAVH (I didn't see any
of them there), but I know that there are longer ones made.  Where could
I find them in Manhattan?

Thanks in advance for your recommendations.


Nelida
