espeak by default, and nothing available that's similar to Eloquence. Which is my only real outstanding gripe with it, which I wish I could get over, because I've always had a good laugh at people who got too hung up on synthesizer choice, but man... espeak is bad to my ears.

NVDA actually has quite a few of the same keystrokes/shortcuts as jaws, but it also has a few that I sometimes wish jaws has, like the ones that let you a bit more easily navigate parent/child controls, etc.
My main use of NVDA is either as backup, or for different languages, but I also keep the portable version on my flash drives since it means I can quite easily work on other people's machines without any software installation.
In other words, while I need/use jaws for lots of work tasks etc., NVDA is definitely my second best choice, and it's getting better all the time - and it's _free_. 

Stay well

So what you are saying is that it will not have it's own shortcuts as JAWS has mainly with the num pad, or maybe fewer short cuts.

Importance: Low
Probably more efficient since it hasn't got the huge command set jaws has got. That means though you need to do more with windows keyboard shortcuts though.

Hi,
Does anyone know how efficient NVDA actually is as a screen reader?
