Wish they'd come out with a version of Jaws that worked well with peoplesoft
and oracle.  I hear Window Eyes finally works well with it.  I've had to
turn down a few job opportunities because I understand Jaws does a crappy
job with these apps.  Would be nice if jfw 10 addressed this.

Ps  If I'm wrong or out of date with this info, someone please set me
straight.
