The USA is my home and I hate it. It was not my choice to be here and that
will change soon. I want to return to my home country but I am with the
woman that I love and I would never put her through the pains of my country.
I do have the right to put money where my mouth is but I rather put it in
other peoples hands who know what to do with it. I would never be a greedy
person but if I want to help others along with me I will. Now how would you
like a company that as long as you had and had paid for their product would
do whatever they could to fix the problem that you whir having because other
people could be having it, and they would not charge you for it. Wouldn't
that be nice? I am starting to think that GW does not want to do this
because they want to be like every other company that makes our lives
difficult. Okay have fun. Why can't window-eyes creators be different.
Why?????

One of the great things about the United States, and I presume that this
is your home, you have the right to put your money where your mouth is.
Think you have a better mousetrap and can build and sell it more
lcost effectively, then show the world. If you can and can survive in the
competitive marketplace, then all will be beating a path to your doorstep.
However, if you don't cover your expenses and are a for profit operation,
you will soon choose, regardless of customer satisfaction, cease to exist.
I should add that specialized software in all fields is expensive. My
sighted wife just purchased a program to run on her embrodery machines
which was over $2,000.
Why, well the market is small, customers expect much handholding, company
reps have to go around North America (and perhaps elsewhere)
demonstrating, appearing at shows, workshops, and all the rest.
Only the federal government can fund programs via the printing press to
pay for them. The rest of the business world has to pay their bills on an
ongoing basis (and those include salaries) or cease to exist.
The complexities of WE, along with its superb functionality beyond mere
the reading of a screen, explains why it sells for what it does.
Moreover, once you pay the initial tab, the costs of upgrading are minimal
to keep yourself at the cut edge of even greater functionality.
Could WE be sold for less, I don't know. Could GWMicro justify a higher
price, most likely.
It is a competitive marketplace, and there are alternatives to WE out
there. It is up to the users individually to decide which alternative and
price level will serve their needs best.
Just remember, you often get what you paid for; and what initially might
appear to be a cost effective bargain ends up proving the most costly both
from a utility and pocketbook standpoint.
The Holy Spirit is nothing more than God in motion.
