On a lot of these lists lately, you can't get the person's actual email
address from them. I think they say it's for security purposes. Pam.

There are larger forces at work here. For one thing, smart phones and
tablets are replacing computers for many people. Many find that they can do
what they need to do with their smart phone or tablet, along with
consumption of content like music, videos, games, and sporting events. My
wife has an aging PC that she has not got around to replacing because she is
doing everything with her iPhone, and is considering buying an iPad as
opposed to a PC. Many blind persons prefer a dedicated note taker to a PC,
and today's generation of note takers are not so dedicated anymore.
And as for those blind persons who use PCs, the free screen reader NVDA is
no longer a curiosity but is a viable solution for many home PC users. PCs
are still essential in the workplace, but the blind population is growing
older, and many who have worked are retiring. And Apple continues to be an
alternative solution for blind persons. The demand for PC based screen
reading software is decreasing, and there just isn't enough demand to
support several competing products. I think that eventually advanced screen
reader capability will be built into Windows narrator and the AT companies
will make their money on hardware such as note takers, braille displays, and
low vision solutions.

I probably shouldn't chime in on this, but I doubt if
the people at Window-Eyes had a lot to say about this sale. The parent
compan is AI Squared, and I'm sure they made the decision.
No, the good people at WE sold to AI Squared because they kept their
prices affordable, and it's hard to feed a family on affordability.
The men and women who worked for WE and AI Squared were dedicated,
caring people. Unfortunately, big business gets the nod.
I've been a GW customer for 22 years, and love it. Don't forget all
the times they helped us out of jams, and not only in working hours.
There was no betrayal here, simply economics. At least we still have
WE for now, and we need to stop giving the wrong people grief.
Granted, we think they're there to please us, and they have, for many
years. But I suspect they couldn't do it alone any more.
Thank you Doug, Dan, Chris, Marc, and all the people I've missed for
exemplary service. May it continue!
Mickey Prahin
