You can use excel with NVDA as well. And also for best performance you could use thunder and NVDA interchangeably.

So rather than spending thousands of dollars fighting a discrimination lawsuit, which many blind people don't have that kind of money, why not use NVDA for what is possible right now. If your job only requires you to use Microsoft Word and they do not want employees to install 3rd party software, why not use NVDA for that purpose. Blah blah blah etc. etc. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Darrell Shandrow" <nu7i@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi Trenton,
I've had a number of tech jobs and haven't had any trouble installing JAWS 
on machines at work.  If I am not able to do it myself, then it is a
function performed by the company's IT department. Since a screen reader is 
often required for a blind / visually impaired person to do their job, it
is, well, discrimination not to ultimately permit its installation for that 
purpose.

Right, now, I feel NVDA is great for many users for performing their
day-to-day home based computing activities, but, in many cases, it probably 
isn't quite job-ready yet.

I agree! How can a program, Job Access With Speech be called that, if most 
offices won't let people install it at their work place. Even for a
pin-drive, it just doesn't help at all! So honestly, ther's no freedom with 
Freedom Scientific, if you can't have the freedom to use any computer
anywhere, even at college,  That's not freedom!
The good thing about NVDA? No one will know you're using a screen reader!
Unless they acctually look on the system tray...
When the next latest version of NVDA comes to the world, that will be on the 
pen drive I have, and on my desktop PC, NVDA snap shots!

maybe Freedom Scientific would be the people that need to change the name of their screen reader rather than the NVDA team. . Maybe the people at 
FS can call it Just Another Waste and Spend.  Wow hmmm, All they would
have to do is add another A. to their logo, contact George Lucas to get
permission to use the Jawas as their mascot, and raise the price another
100 dollars per user of their screen reader to cover the cost of doing
that. LOL ok now back to useful discussion.

name provox for windows. I like flipper the best. What name do you think 
is more catchy and would get people to use the screen reader?
