to the contrary, I found the window-eyes demo extremely sluggish compared to jaws 9, especially with the eloquence speech synthesiser. I find that jaws 9 is much more stable, and do really think that freedom have made improvements in jaws stability.

Jaws won't work on new computer with Vista | Hi Michelle, | I've been a Jaws user since the early days, perhaps Jaws 3.2. I have | recently switched to Window Eyes for a trial period to check it out | and I have to say, I'm very impressed with Window Eyes. I find Window | Eyes extremely responsive, compared to Jaws wich seems to becoming | ever more sluggish. | | Peter Logue | | | | | -----Original Message----- | From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On | Behalf Of Michelle Brandt | Sent: Monday, April 14, 2008 9:53 PM | To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx | Subject: [access-uk] Re: Help Please!
