give windows 8.1 a chance. it only took me a few weeks to learn the ropes.
i will never go back to xp. compared to windows 7 and 8.1 it is a dead
dinasore.
just like dos is dead.
you will find fewer and fewer new periphials or software that will support
xp. the stuf you find in most big box stores is old, discontinued
periphials. like the new printer i bought. it was new, but 3 year old
discontinued tecnology.
move on. everything and everyone is going to apps and windows 8.1 and 10 are
the only windows versions that will support this tecnology.
as for wineyes, i hope i squared is working on fixing all the problems they
created with the w e 9 re write.
they have rendered firefox useless. it hangs both firefox and w e every
time i want to open the bookmark list. it keeps repeating every other line
of text it finds on web pages. i can not get the food prices on the
shop.safeway.com site anymore.
i have no problems with any of the above useing nvda.
i don't like i e 11. unlike firefox i can not do a search for links i have
saved in the favorites list. this is what i use the most when looking for
things i have saved for later.

Honestly, if I had been smart, I would of stayed with XP and WE 8.4. that,
in my opinion, was the best set up and I hardly had a problem. Now, I have
WE 9.0 and Office 2010 and a new computer and am so sorry I changed.

Subject: trying to decide if I should migrate to window-eyes 9 because I
still have windows xp
Dear List, especially XP users:
Until I can get a newer computer, I am still using Windows XP. I realize it
has not been tested for Window-eyes nine. Those who are still using windows
XP, have you stayed with window-eyes 8.4 or have you taken a chance with
version nine. Your answers will help me decide whether to wait or upgrade
to the newest window-eyes. Thanks for your experiences regarding this.
Regards: Ted Larson
