Apple Opens Door to Independence
Article Abstract:
An Apple II system was modified to allow a user paralysed from the neck down to take advantage of the machine's word processing capabilities. This was accomplished by adding four extra switches to the keyboard, eliminating the need to depress more than one key at a time. An Olivetti printer was added that could function as both an electric typewriter and printer.
