Without a sound card, how are you using a screen reader? Indeed, without a sound card, how would a blind user use a computer? I am not being facetious, I am curious, because I cannot imagine how that would work, and know this is a crucial part of coming up with a good solution here. Is there something like a Braille printer that you would use to get the output (or maybe even a mechanical screen that displayed Braille for you to read)? J.Ja
