Probably it's because jaws can't figure out what video card is in the
computer so can't build its data base model under fusion correctly.
Usually when jaws has a problem and Window-eyes works flawlessly it's
because window-eyes is video card agnostic and doesn't freak out about
what it can't recognize. Jaws on the other hand will freak out at the
drop of a hat. I remember one time at work when jaws wouldn't work with a
new computer video card until it was temporarily updated to the current
version for testing on that machine and it was because the new video card
wasn't in the older version's data base.

Yes, spreadsheets seem to be an issue at present, though I have high
hopes
that we'll see Numbers improved sooner than later. That aside, there
are
quite a few spreadsheet apps available over at pure- mac.com but I've
not
had a chance to demo them all yet. If someone already has, more info
on
this would be most helpful.
As for Jaws, the last I heard was that JFW with Fusion had some
issues,
but that may have been resolved with the official release earlier this
week. Under Parallels, window-Eyes works great, but I don't know
about
Jaws. I seem to remember reading several people posting here that it
worked fine with Parallels, but again don't take that as gospel.
