I've been a WE user since version 4.11 and I am sure there was not
two version since that version. That was one of their selling
points. The price was about $200 less than JAWS.

One thing some people may have forgotten or were not on board with WE
early enough was thay they also charged extra for pro versions of
Window-Eyes. It seems to me that it was at least $100 more than the
standard version because I did not have pro and a friend did. When the
time came that I needed pro, I did have to find the money to do so. The
difference between the two companies is that all upgrades cost the same
for WE and JFW charges more for the pro version upgrades.

> Hello Lynn. I agree with you that we shouldn't call anybody
names. I think the problem with FS that people have is the fact
they have a stranglehold in education and and the fact you have to
pay extra for home and pro. That was one of the reasons I went to
Window-Eyes. But yes, they were indeed running out of money, even
though Window-Eyes had been around for 23 years, and the lawsuit
that FS filed contributed to this..
