I agree, Rod. If an iPad or Mac can do everything one wants then it's
certainly a viable option. And that's the only point I'm trying to

i have heard and read this argument before. It may have held some water in
the past, but not today. For one thing, most of us already have a computer,
and
if things are still the same apple can read a windows formatted drive if you
use fat32 instead of the ntfs? format.

For me at least, the expense of a new PC plus the expense of having to
switch to JAWS if WE goes under, might very well equal or exceed the expense
of a new Mac.

The only thing that keeps me from switching is the expense of a mac and I
am obligated to use Windows at work at the radio station. I must admit
though that I use my desktops less and do most things on my Iphone. Again
its the big expense

To be honest with you I feel the same way.
I have been a loyal jaws, and window eyes user for over a decade and I
am finding that Voiceover handels web content better then the windows
screen readers now a days.
Also the cost of the screen reader in a mac is free and is also
constantly
work with it?

WE is not dead yet. It still works great for me and they still
respond to a support question, although this is not as good
The big test will be when windows 10 Creators update is released. Will
window-eyes work with it?

Hi Tony:
I am not pulling the plug on Window-eyes just yet. It works well for
me, and when it doesn't, I have played with JAWS enough to know that
it seems to have improved from years ago. The only thing is that I
do not feel justified in paying all that money for JAWS when NVDA is
free and
WE is not dead yet. It still works great for me and they still respond to a
support question, although this is not as good as it used to be.

You are comparing windows screen readers with the ios platform, very
different fish. I would try the Mac before you buy, there is a 14 day
return period. VO on the Mac is not the same as VO on an iphone, it
may or may not work depending on the website.

Well, I started with Vocal-Eyes back in the good ol' DOS days, and have

world uses Microsoft products, and the Office stuff for the Mac isn't
