[bcab] Re: software for students

I have Vista on this laptop, and both JAWS and NVDA work easily. Hope this helps.

Subject: [bcab] software for students


Hello folks
A friend is going on a theological studies course, and does not know which speech software works best with vista and word for students and home. She will be able to ask for the latest version of either jaws or hal, but is not an experienced user. I have not used vista myself, and so cannot comment on the relative merits of various screen readers with it. I know that some have preferences for one over the other, but I am looking for a balanced view. Perhaps someone who has used several screen readers with vista can help with some feedback. I do not want a full assessment, but just want to find out which works overall easier and/or if there are particular problems with any of them. Thanking you in anticipation. 

cheers
