Lol nice Steve. Yes come on people. I know I raise some issues on
this list sometimes which I'm sure GW-Micro would rather me just keep
quiet about, but at the same time I believe that the majority of the
time and correct me if I'm wrong, the issues I raise are things which
need to be addressed. The startup announcement is not really something
which matters as far as I'm concerned. I remember the old Echo II on the
Apple II E used to say "Hello" when it started (yes ok I was a kid
then). Is this something that really matters? I personally like that
the version number isn't announced anymore, but for those who don't like
this change and need to be reminded every time that Window Eyes launches
maybe GW-Micro could add a togglable option under startup options and
leave it off by default? I would think that more discussion would be
focused on issues of performance, new feature requests, or stability.
Though I guess GW-Micro would probably like it if I'd shut up about my
Windows 8 messages and such. *smiley* I think we have established that
some people want the version number back and some don't. Some want it
to quote random phrases at startup and others don't. Hey Steve, I vote
that we add a whole new function for WE to play MP3s at startup so it
can play your prefered song to wake you up in the morning? While we're
at it, lets add a hard drive search feature to make it search the local
drives for songs and play one at random, a different one each day? Oh
and even further, let's make sure it can play .OGG, .WMA and Apple file
formats just to accomodate those who don't like .MP3s? While we're at
it, this better not add another 20 seconds startup time or 200K of RAM
useage to the program. Ok, yes I'll put my sarcastic humor away where
it belongs. I'm done. Carry on.

Hi Sandra,
Acknowledge what? Just by speaking it says, I'm alive, make me work
and do my think by playing with your computer. Perhaps we should have
window-eyes have the ability to predict the future, give our
appointment calendars for the next week, remind us of upcoming
birthdays, and tell us to remember to buy an SMA at each boot up. <grin>.

When the computer starts talking, doesn't that imply window-eyes is
ready?
I must admit, when the version number was removed from startup, i
wanted it back. about a day later it didn't matter to me and I don't
miss it.

System Access says it is ready, Jaws does so, so why not Wineyes? It
works!
