While it might not hurt to take the JAWS offer, no one should be made to feel foolish for not doing it, regardless of one's own opinion. Whether to switch to JAWS or not is Butch's prerogative.
Personally, I could not take advantage of the offer due to my version of WE being out of date. Voc Rehab came through for me, only because I'm in a job search and told them WE was going away, and I needed JAWS in the job search, so my counselor was able to justify the expense. Now, I've just got to see if they can get the registration in my name, as, right now, it's registered to the Rehab agency, since that was what was on the P.O. Now, I've got both on here, and can switch at will between Window-Eyes, JAWS, NVDA or Narrator. It's good to have choice, but, that is what choice is all about. -----Original Message----- From: Talk [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Nick Sarames via Talk Sent: Tuesday, July 25, 2017 12:57 PM To: Butch Bussen <[email protected]>; Window-Eyes Discussion List <[email protected]>; Dennis Long <[email protected]> Subject: Re: Good Bye And what if you find NVDA does not meet your needs in the long run? After all, NVDA isn't made by God. As I said, if you never use Jaws, you can not come up with a rational justification for not taking advantage of a free offer.
