Hi pamela,
To say the truth I have the window-eyes with dectalk integrated but the dectalk
I can't use it with other screen reader programs such as the NVDA.
For me dectalk was one of the best speech synthesizers ever made.

have to revert back to the venerable window-eyes because this Jaws does not
