Any X3 users in the TC?

Hi All,
I'm wondering if there are any X3 users in the Twin Cities who might be willing to open their studios to me for a moment.  I am a legally blind musician who has used Cakewalk software since the mid 90s.  Currently, I am using Cakewalk 8.5.3.282, the last version known to be accessible to blind and visually impaired users.  I have heard that X3 is somewhat accessible using at least two different screen readers.  If possible, I would like to bring a screen reader in on a thumb drive and try to navigate SONAR X3 using that screen reader on a Windows 7 machine.  Your machine will not be effected by the screen reader as it will not be installed on your machine.  If anyone living in the TC is willing to lend me a hand by giving mean opportunity to see if the latest version of SONAR can be used by a blind user with a screen reader, please write to me off list at kevjazz@gmail.com

thanks in advance for your help.  
 
Kevin

    Hey Kevin, unfortunately I don't live near you but I just wanted to bump your thread and express my support for what you are asking. I hope you get a response and X3 works out for you.

    Hi Kev,
    Are you in a position to download the X3 demo and try it for yourself? Just a thought. All the best

    At the moment, I haven't acquired the Windows 7 machine I intend to use.  I'm getting a dual boot Mac with Windows on one side of a partitioned drive.  I want to see the full program before I get this gear because seeing it will help me decide whether to load SONAR 8.5.3.282, th last version known to be useful to a blind man, or launch this new partition with X3.  I now have an XP machine.  So, I hope i find someone in town with a machine I can check out for a while.
