Zoomtext screen magnification software has a range of tracking
options including a flashing box around the cursor. Markers can also
be placed at hot spots on the screen e.g. menu bar, scroll bars,
start bar to enable quick access to these areas of the screen when
required. This software may be too sophisticated (and hence too
expensive) for your needs at 300-500 pounds ex vat. It is available
from Sight and Sound Technology Tel: (01604) 798070. Check out
