[macvoiceover] Re: VO and or jaws

I was once the VP of Software Engineering at FS and was in charge of JAWS for six years. today, when I have the choice, I use a Macintosh with VO (sometimes I have a client who requires either GNU/Linux or Windows and I'm left without a choice). For the most part, I find VO and Macintosh more usable and much less buggy (I am going nuts with a bug you might see earlier in the email list for today but I find at least a dozen "showstopper" bugs in JAWS/Windows every time I turn it on) .

Right now, I think JAWS handles web content with both IE and Firefox better than any other screen reader on any other platform. Most everything else, though, I tend to prefer on Mac.

This sort of discussion really belongs on the VO-bs email list. Will someone move it over so we don't clog up this one for those people with immediate questions?


Happy Hacking,

Hi all,

For people who used jaws and then went to a mac and voiceover, is jaws better? How do the two compare? I was talking about this with a friend of mine and she thought jaws was better, but had not really used vo.
I just wondered if someone could give me a comparison.
Thanks,
Have a blessed day,
