I am helping someone whose niece, age 6, is a victim of cerebral palsey and who has shown interest in having a small computer. For financial reasons, we are looking at the popular 8-bit machines for which a broad software base exists (Apple, C64, Atari). Apparently, the child has severe fine motor impairment; she cannot write and probably has little dexterity with her fingers. Therefore, we are looking for microcomputer add-on keyboards made for such folks. Please keep in mind that the "keyboard" has to be interfaced to the computer and we'd prefer not to have an R&D project as the aunt, the niece, and I are on west coast, central US, and east coast, respectively. Please mail or post replies to net.
