The thing is there is no one size fits all -- some programs don't work
on MacOS at all such as quickbooks and the audio editing situation is
more difficult. Web browsing can be very nice or lousy on some sites,

different needs, priorities, and biases, but I wonder why why some find
Jaws to be clunky while others (such as you) are quite satisfied. I

Yep, I agree totally. Just shows you what marketing and lining the

in Nevada and also worked for them for almost a year. Window-eyes never
had a chance. They did provide me with Window-eyes, but it was a real

Also, with Jaws you can make the insert key a "Sticky" key. That way you hit
insert and take your finger off and use the same hand to reach another.
