Hi Debby i first started with WE version 4.5 SP1. It came in the old large cardboard pacage with the cassettes WE has been a good screen reader. I use to get cranky when WE would lose focus on IE but Jaws does the same thing. Cheers Michael. -Original Message- From: Debby Franson

Hi Olusegun! I agree. The bar was set so high with Window-Eyes, that nothing else has reached as high, and I don't think anything will. That was why, when I read the end of life pop-up, I literally grieved, knowing that my first love in screen readers had caught the disease of obsolescence

Hello everyone. I am still using Window-Eyes and the various Android apps in my smart phone but I think the 4 B's might apply here to FS, Jaws and screen reading access generally. What are the 4 B's? Big, Bigger, Biggest, Bust. In the longr term, some good will come of it all depending on

FS is getting desperate to hang onto their market at any cost. With JAWS having a monopoly in the paid market now, the price of JAWS might go up. -Original Message- From: Talk [mailto:talk-boun...@lists.window-eyes.com] On Behalf Of Reeva Webb via Talk Sent: Thursday, August 17, 2017
