JAWS has much greater market share than ZoomText has. Also need to look at: i) HAL / Dolphin Software ii) Look Out / Choice Technology; iii) WindowEyes iv) Virgo / Baum v) BRLTTY / FLOSS (?) vi) EmacSpeak / vii) Suse-BLinux / SUSE viii) VoiceOver (Macintosh) > please file bugs to Freedom Scientific, we can't work around them. The only bug reports that Freedom Scientific takes seriously are those filed by corporate users. [Their apparent working assumption, which probably is legitimate, is that all home users who have JAWS are using either a pirated version of JAWS, or a version that has reached the end of its life. Not many people who use JAWS can afford to buy the updates.] > - Not every issue flagged with Accessibility keyword means that there is > really a big problem "Big" is very much the perception of the beholder. For blind users, things that might appear to be trivial, can have major consequences. [Consider, for example, a warning message in its own box popping up on a computer screen. If the blind person doesn't know that the message is there, from their perspective, the computer system has crashed, and none of their data has been saved.] > Would be nice to see more people testing Accessibility on GNOME :) When will GNOME be available for Windows?
