Hi All,

Some time ago -- probably 18 months or so -- I was looking into purchasing a
powerful PC and installing both JAWS and Dragon Naturally Speaking so my
bride could use it to read/send email and browse the internet.  However, it
seemed at that time a third piece of software was required to be able to use
both assistive technologies on the same PC.

Can anybody offer any suggestions or answers to the following questions:

- What is required for getting JAWS and Naturally Speaking to work together
now?
- Is the third utility still necessary?
- Is there any way to configure a PC to use both JAWS and Naturally Speaking
without such a third utility?
- Would an additional sound card be of any value in this configuration?
- If the third utility is a must, which one offers the biggest bang for the
buck?
- What sort of cost are we looking at here (I have an authorized JAWS
already but not Naturally Speaking)?

Thanks much!
