Rick,
Is there an alternative? If so let's explore it.
Let me use an automotive hot-rod allegory.
Many of the automotive manufacturers don't want to be associated with the
hot-rod or tuner culture, however there some really bright engineers who
want to make those cars go fast in spite of the factory. They take these
cars apart assess their strengths and weaknesses and capitalize on the
strengths and bolster the weaknesses for a great end result. Why can't the
same can do approach be applied to JAWS?

Larry, how are they to do this when Intuit is completely hostile to both
companies and to the blind community in general? I say the hell with using
their programs, let's support someone that wants to help us to use their
products.

This provides an excellent opportunity for the high dollar screen reader
developers to show how good they really are.

The company that makes Quicken and QuickBooks has indicated no interest in
making their products more accessible. This is something that both FS and GW
agree on. The fact that no screen reader offers much support for these
products should be an indicator here of where the blame lies.
