AAC Keys: Writing from Pathfinder to Computer

This is how I wrote my 1 Voice Teenagers 'Moving On Up' story.

My Pathfinder writes to any computer that has AAC Keys installed.

I connect my (old) Pathfinder to a laptop with a serial cable. Newer communication aids have USB and bluetooth. I'm buying a USB to Serial converter from eBay so I can write to our Mac PowerBook.

AAC Keys is a keyboard and mouse emulator offered as a free download from the AAC Institute:
