After years of being cast aside, we are beginning to recognize the needs of disabled people in our community. In the past people with one disability say, for example, they couldn't walk, were labled generically as disabled and were not provided the opportunities for education and careers that able-bodied people were. However, now we are accepting the fact that one disability does not mean a person has no abilites. There are more and more products available on the market to help a person with a disability to use their abilities to have an independent and productive life. One of these technolgies is Dragon-NaturalSpeaking Solutions. This software allows a person to create documents, search the internet, and use a variety of software applications through voice commands. It not only comes in several languages but also iin a variety of levels from standard to medical and legal. Thissoftware provides an avenue for a physically handicapped individual to pursuit computer interests and careers that previously were unavailable to them.
