Hi Glenda,

Dr Sarah Morley of the National Tactile Diagrams Centre here in the UK received 
a major International Award (from Stevie Wonder) for her "Windows 95 
Explained".  This has since been updated to Windows 98 and also Windows XP.

You can find more information at:-

http://www.winguide.co.uk/

However I have to add that the web site has not yet been updated to reflect the 
Windows XP Publication which I believe is now available.  (I was told that by 
the web site designer only last Tuesday!)
