Hi,

You can run them both on the same pc with no problems.  Speech and
braille work just fine.  I do on windows xp pro and windows xp media
center.  Haven't had any problems.  In fact, I have Jaws, NVDA and
Window Eyes on this machine I'm writing this e-mail on.  Even got the
W.e. for Java program that makes Window wyes read stuff in Java Jaws
can only dream of and there's no problem.

Since I brought it up, might as well say this in case anyone gets
inspired to run NVDA and Jaws on the same machine.  Don't turn on the
braille display functionality on NVDA if you are going to use Jaws
with braille.  I don't know what NVDA does but it causes jaws' braille
support to go wonkey when you exit NVDA and bring jaws back up.
Braile keys don't work the way they are supposed to anymore until you
do a restart.  Window eyes doesn't do that so, you can have braille
support going for jfw and win eyes with no problems either way.

HTH,
Alex M
