Hi
well I don't have a problem with n v d a myself. I've messed around with
it a little bit, but the thing is that in order to not only learn windows 8
I now have to learn how to use a new screen reader to. witch will just make
the learning that much longer for me. I'm not aganst learning new things. So
now instead of it taking me a week or two to learn a new oS it will now take
me two or three times as long.
bfn

I'm sorry, but I don't see how just because jaws can't access windows
eight correctly, that it means windows eight is in accessible. Due to the
fact that NVDA works with it perfectly well, and yes, I have tested jaws
14 myself. And I agree, JAWS 14 is hopeless in windows eight. But I don't
think that that is Windows as a problem, I believe that that is Freedom
scientific, saying that they have adapted the program for windows eight,
when in actual fact, when I have tested it, it has very little access to
the new functions of windows eight at all. So I would hazard a guess, that
if you tried something like NVDA, I would think that you would find
windows eight as accessible, if not more so, then other versions.

Yes I do know that little tidbit, but I was just joking around l o l. I
was just trying to add a little huommer to the topic. I think that some
people are missunderstanding what Dark was trying to say. He's not
pointing the finger at the programers. Just at MS for not thinking things
out like all ways. They did the same thing back with windows 2000 that
had so many bugs it wasn't funny. then what they do they fix the problems
and no time later they releassed the same produck, but just by a
different name. Hello windows mE. then they did the same thing with vista
and 7. they are the same thing just with all the bugs worked out, and now
they have win 8. witch to me just is not screen reader friendlyI'm
running jaws 14 that was made for win 8 and it is still a pain in the
but. I think what Dark was trying to do here was bring us togetheras a
community and try to solv this problem as far as not being abel to run 16
bit games anymore.
