Hi Steve: It is incumbent on a piece of software to work with a given platform including operating systems and, in the case of a screen reader, the keyboard which is the primary interface for their clients and the only thing they have to use the features of the software. A simple list of manufacturers and hardware that works well with WindowEyes might be the easiest and least costly solution. Also, a list of settings for various other gotchyas like audio cards should also be available for the more common choices a WindowEyes client may make. This needs to be available on a WebPage and not burried in some technical, or many technical, articles requiring a long search effort by a new user and available before a user buys a new machine with the intent of using WindowEyes on it. Just a part of having a professional piece of software and considering the target audience. Another choice would be to act as a ReSeller of compatible hardware and software products but I can see AI Squared selling at a much higher markup than other standard retailers and thus things costing us more. I give up. I don't run that company, am not in their management team nor do I sit on the Board so any further comments might be beetching the whale and I will just drop this thread and go listen to Red Wing Hockey and Ken and Paul call the game - smile. Later and have a good weekend! Rick USA
