let me make one thing clear, I am not bitter. I am not sure about what
merge is being talked about, Window-eyes was dropped, not merged with Jaws.
My point was Vfo had the chance to retain the best of Window-eyes and jaws
in both technology and people and produce one hell of a screen reader
unlike anything the world has ever seen and they chose not to do that, they
just trashed their "compeditor" completely like they never existed.

Hi Josh,
As for Office support in NVDA, as I am subscribed to Office 365, and
will be for the foreseeable future, I will be using NVDA to navigate it
should Window-Eyes no longer suffice.
I've been keeping my ear to the ground, though, and I know that Office
support for NVDA is a high priority.
We'll keep everyone posted.
As I've said, I will not be using the offering of the enemy of GW Micro.
Best,
Rod

oh well then maybe I will just stay with NVDA and I may not bother
buying jaws, not sure yet. I heard jaws has better microsoft office
support than NVDA does. But maybe that is no longer true?

you might as well junk it now.
2018 release will be in about 2 weeks.
f s has had the same 27 years as window eyes had and it still doesn't
work as good.
i can't even pay my credit card with it. a web page that is suppose to
be jaws compatible doesn't work.
window eyes works fine.
money talks. if gwmicro was the one that had all the money it would of
been f s that would be out of business now.

Chuck,
I agree with you! My s m as were carried over from W E, but when I have
to pay for an upgrade, Jaws will disappear from my computer.

Well, I've been using Jaws for a while now and I must confess the
Window-eyes was the much better product both in speed, browsing,
usability, layout, and so much more. Like on the Ohio Lottery Website,
when reading the pick 5 Jaws will not scroll down continuously down
the page like NVDA, Narrator, and Window-eyes do. I also find
Window-eyes synthesizer support was much better. I am not whining, I
am just bemoaning the fact that a company got by with trashing a
product completely, borrowing or using nothing from the product they
trashed and acting like Window-eyes never existed, not to mention
charging so much for the product. Don't give me that similar stuff,
because I've found webpages where Jaws just doesn't work and NVDA and
Narrator do.
So why won't I just shut up? I will, just wanted to point out in my
view what I've realized, and hopefully NVDA, Narrator and others will
be able to say Thank You to VFO for pushing us to a day when a 2
thousand dollar screen reader is no longer need.
Thanks for reading, I'm now shutting up.
