Yes, it's possible to have a computer with only Linux on it, no DOS, no Windows, no "anything else". To do this, you just have to specifyto the Linux installation program (which is different for every Linux distributions), that you want to use the entire hard disk of your machine for your Linux installation. There are also several companies who will sell you Linux-only systems, with Linux pre-installed so you don't have to worry about the installation. The one that has the best reputation is "Penguin Computing": http://www.penguincomputing.com They are mostly specilized in servers, but also offer a whole range of workstations. Installing a Braille reader and/or a speech synthesizer is left to you.
