You know what? Even if Window-Eyes is not your screen reader of choice
and perhaps it never will be, but since it's free why not install it
anyway. It may just help when your prefered screen reader can't!

The good news is all this information is easily found online. Lets look
at the website, http://www.WindoweyesForOffice.com
GW Micro, in collaboration with Microsoft, is excited to provide people
who are blind, visually
impaired, or print disabled with a completely functional* and free
license of GW
Micro's
Window-Eyes screen reader.
Notice that phrase "completely functional"? No mention of only working
with office. No mention of not working with anything else accept office.
When I see the words "completely functional" that means just what it
says, completely functional. I fully understand some of them might
choose to use other screenreaders, I mean after all, not everyone uses
Window-eyes. But at least do GW Micro the courtesy of getting the facts
straight.
That just irritates me to no end.
You know what I say, if Lewis has the resources to do so, I say print
out and read some of these messages at his next meeting, and set these
jokers straight. They obviously have no idea what they're talking about.
and if they get their facts incorrect about Window-eyes, imagine what
other misinformation it's possible for them to spread because they don't
check their facts? Scary thought, people.

Well, now whoever spread this misinformation about Window-eyes only
functioning with Ms Office needs to relisten to and reread the
information that Gw Micro released clearly explaining the partnership
with Microsoft and the inclusion of a fully functional version of
Window-eyes. This misinformation is what I consider to be an indirect
slap in the face to Gw Micro. Do those who spread this misinformation
really believe that if Gw Micro so highly promoted the partnership
would release a version of Window-eyes only to fully function with Ms
Office? No way. Louis, I know you’re smart enough not to stick your
foot in your mouth in this situation, and besides, I don’t think a
dirty foot would taste too good, smile. I could write a lot more, but
much of what I feel like writing could get me removed from this list,
