That's what I'm saying. Everybody talks about what might happen with the
next windows update, blah blah! My thought is: get something to have on
hand, but use the window eyes first until it doesn't do something you need
it to do. Even then, you still may be able to use it for other things.

The operative words are "just may stop:" hasn't happened yet. Until it
does or until window-eyes doesn't do what I wwant, I'll keep using it.
I don't have windows ten and run xp and seven. I wil go to n v d a if
necessary. I've actually got some dos boxes I built up and still run
vocal-eyes, needed to program some radios.

I have been a WE user for over 20 years and always felt it was the best
screen reader. Now with no more development I have to realize that the
next major release of Win 10 just may stop WE dead in its tracks. As I
recall in the past every new release of Windows required an update to WE
to make WE work with it. So now if you plan on using WE well into the
future you are probably going to have to avoid any future major Windows
upgrades. Is that a bad thing who knows.
I am finding that NVDA does a pretty good job with very few things it
doesn't do as well as WE. I did take up VFO's offer of a free copy of
Jaws and am using it as my secondary screen reader. If you plan on
staying with a Windows based computer I don't understand why you would not
take the free copy of Jaws. Actually the Jaws SMA's are less expensive
than the WE SMA's I had purchased in the past.
