Do you require a pure Linux environment or could you get away with the windows 10 creators developer Linux environment?Jaws or NVDA will work with this environment and so will your braille display. Just an idea. Otherwise you will have to use VMWare.

I think it's an open question at the moment. Microsoft have implemented (as I understand it) some of the Linux system calls, but not everything. As soon as I need something which lies outside the scope of what they've implemented, I'll need a virtual machine. One option, of course, is to go ahead with the hardware purchase and then experiment on the software side.
