Sure, I'll tell Goldwave to stop having their free version available, or for Reaper to stop doing the same. I take it you are then submitting that SR can do the same things these things can do? I'll definitely have to go see a feature list ... I'm expecting thousands upon thousands of features, support for VST plugins, etc, for that price. I agree with you about Vinux not being ready for primetime. It doesn't qualify as a ready operating system by any stretch of the imagination, nor does any other *nix distro, with respect to comparable accessibility, which is why I use Windows still.

I agree 200$ is too much but I don't set the price. I do however use whatever is easiest to use. I tried Vinux its free and it crashed, it wouldn't update right, things don't work easily, so for the time being I am again using windows and Mac. I use windows more than Mac even on the Mac because windows is easier. Price is not the way to judge things. I use what works right, easily, and does everything I need. That's why I pay for my editor because none of the free ones do what I want and that includes Jamal's very good Ed sharp I just have some different needs. I am willing to pay for things that work right. Now SR is in the same category as gold wave are you going to tell them to stop charging so much as well?

I'd laugh, but I'm too busy being sick to my stomach at such an insane price for anything.

It is $200 but it is the most accessible and coolest sound tool made for blind folks. If you don't have a volunteer yet let me know and I can see what I can wack out.
